Pretty nice. How does it handle multiple displays? I've set it up with local Ollama, and it seems to only record and analyze one of my two secondary displays. It would be ideal if I can select which one is used if the recording is limited to a single display, or even better if it can record and analyze the entire multi-monitor desktop surface.

edit Nvm, it seems it always records the display that is currently in focus. That is probably the better way to handle it, since it automatically solves the "ignore what's shown but not interacted with on secondary displays" problem.



This was my question also, I think "even better if it can record and analyze the entire multi-monitor desktop surface" would be the best option. I don't know what the impact of that would be on both recording size and AI processing time, but just because one monitor is focused doesn't always mean what's happening on another is ignored. Some examples: an ongoing meeting or watching a video on one screen while taking notes on another; or coding on one screen and a browser/app auto-refreshing on another.


Yep, you figured out how it works! That was the easiest solution I could come up with. I'm sure theres additional context on other screens but this was a good 90/10 solution.


I see a potential issue where you're in a zoom call in one monitor and working in something else in the other (multitasking ) how to handle that ?
