'FFMPEG is not able to find window for edge browser

I am trying to capture video recording for edge browser using below command

ffmpeg.exe -f gdigrab -framerate 9 -i title="About version - Profile 1 - Microsoft​ Edge' -vcodec libx264 -threads 1 -crf 35 -preset ultrafast -f hls -g 15 -hls_list_size 0 -hls_time 5 -r 7 -pix_fmt yuv420p -maxrate 1.7M -bufsize 2M -tune zerolatency -vf pad=ceil(iw/2)*2:ceil(ih/2)*2 index.m3u8

This is how I found title for edge browser

tasklist /v /fi "imagename eq msedge.exe" /fo list

This is the error I get (notice the weird character)

 Can't find window 'About version - Profile 1 - MicrosoftΓÇï Edge'

I have also verified the title with AutoIt application. This is working fine for chrome and firefox. Let me know if some is able to record the edge browser via ffmpeg



Solution 1:[1]

According to your issue, I tried to record video of Edge window using FFMPEG, and it works fine.

I think your issue caused by wrong command?

title="About version - Profile 1 - Microsoft? Edge'

The leading and trailing quotes don't correspond, I reproduced your problem through it.
