How to screencast with VoiceOver screen reader
Quick tips on getting set up to record desktop video and audio!
Here’s a quick how-to on recording your Mac desktop while using the VoiceOver screen reader. With this setup, you’ll be able to capture both video and internal audio at the same time and hear the audio output while recording.
Setup
For this setup, we’ll be on OS X El Capitan and use QuickTime to capture the video and audio. The only extra thing required is the iShowU Audio Capture driver.
Steps
1 — Install the iShowU Audio Capture driver.
2 — Go to Applications/Utilities and launch Audio MIDI Setup.
3 — Create a new “Multi-Output Device” by clicking the bottom left + icon.
4 — Under the “Use” column, check the Built-in Output and the iShowU Audio Capture checkboxes.
5 — Set the Master Device to your default audio output source so you can hear the audio as you record.
6 — Go to Preferences > Sound.
