In their own words
Segra
Segra records PC gameplay in the background so players can save moments, edit clips, and upload them to share. A hotkey bookmarks moments for later. In supported games, it can detect kills, assists, and deaths, then combine kills into a highlight video; automatic clipping is available for selected games. Segra says it can record any game that runs on a PC, at up to 4K and 144 FPS. It offers multiple recording modes and GPU encoding. The project README lists H.264, HEVC, and AV1 encoding, support for multiple audio devices and separate audio tracks, and microphone noise suppression. Segra is free and open source under GPLv2. Its Free plan is free. Windows builds are listed for Windows 10/11 (x64), with a minimum requirement of Windows 10 64-bit version 1903 or newer. Linux support is early alpha, and the README warns that it may fail to start or have missing or broken features.
