isidavr / kshare

The free and open source and cross platform screen sharing software.

The entire project has been moved to GitLab. https://gitlab.com/ArsenArsen/KShare

The current state of the project can be considered on hold for the time being. When I am back on working there will be a pretty big new release and a new wiki.

KShare

A ShareX inspired cross platform utility written with Qt.

Linux	Windows	OS X
		Soon

Made with KShare itself, of course :)

Usage

See the wiki.

Dependencies

• Qt 5 Widgets
• Qt 5 GUI
• Qt 5 Network
• Qt 5 X11Extras | Winextras
• QHotkey
• libavformat
• libavcodec
• libavutil
• libswscale

Despite the name implying so, this project does not depend on the KDE API at all.

Goals

See the projects

Install

NOTE: These links are temporarily down and will be fixed with the next release. Current (potentially unstable) development builds are available at this location

Distro	Link
Arch Linux (development)	kshare-git
Ubuntu (development)	Ubuntu .deb
Arch Linux	kshare
Ubuntu	Ubuntu .deb

I do plan to make a Debian packages.

For other UNIX-like platforms, and MSYS2 (for Windows):

You have to obtain the dependencies though.

git clone https://github.com/ArsenArsen/KShare.git
cd KShare
qmake // Might be qmake-qt5 on your system
make

On systems with FFMpeg pre-3.1 you need to apply OlderSystemFix.patch to recording/encoders/encoder.cpp. On systems with Qt pre-5.7 you need to install the Qt version from their website.

Support (and contact)

There's a few ways to get support, you can:

• join #kshare on Freenode
• open an issue

If someone can answer, they probably will.

Started on 19th of April 2017 to bring some attention and improvement to Linux screenshotting.
