[SUPPORT][RELEASE] REC – Core Edition: Free In-Editor Recording & Streaming Plugin

REC – Core Edition is now free on Fab: https://fab.com/s/2d0496d35c65

REC lets you record and stream straight from Unreal Engine, in-editor and in-game, without leaving the engine or running a separate capture app.

We built it for ourselves. As a remote studio working with teams and clients around the world, we needed a fast way to share live Unreal work over Slack, Zoom, and wherever the conversation was happening. Off-the-shelf screen capture kept getting in the way, so we built REC. Now it’s yours.

Features

  • Recording in-editor and in-game, at up to 2K
  • Ultra low-latency viewport capture
  • RTMP and SRT streaming
  • Full Blueprint access
  • FFmpeg bundled, so it works out of the box
  • Bring your own FFmpeg build for full control over encoding, with no black box

Get it

Coming soon: REC Pro
REC Pro adds 4K capture, mic and webcam capture, and packaged-build support.
