I'm wondering if there is a solution for recording multiple monitors and have them all display the same time. I want to record my Ninja trader on at least two monitors if not all four. I would like to be able to play them back later so they all show the same way as if I were seeing it live while trading.

Spend some time using your favorite search engine. I went to my favorite, Ecosia.org and did a search for "multiple monitor screen capture" and came up with the following software on the first page of results.

Use Multiple Monitors for Screen Recording

It does cost 100 bux tho.... I have Snagit and screencast-o-matic but neither do multiple monitors that I'm aware of.

I would like to find one that works on multiple monitors myself, albeit for a better price than the one above, so off to searching I go!

Happy Searching!

Camtasia can record multiple monitors, 30 days trial I think.

I have Snagit and I've not been able to get it to record multiple monitors. Maybe I haven't found the correct setting yet, but I don't think it does.

Open Broadcaster Software can do it. And it's Free! And here is a tutorial video to show you how to set it up to do multiple monitors.



Your Welcome!

BB FlashBack Express works well for multi-monitor, its free.

BB FlashBack Express - Free Screen Recorder

Not awful on CPU while recording (for me) but file size can get big after a few hours and re-compress if desired can take forever with multi-screen.. but its very stable. Editor etc. of course with free version. They don't send me nag emails which is nice.

Paid version has more export options but for occasional use its good.

Camtasia is good too.
