OpenScreen includes a webcam overlay that works as a picture-in-picture (PiP) overlay . This is exactly the feature you need to record myself and my screen at the same time on Windows 10. The webcam feed is natively integrated into the recording on Windows, so you don't have to combine separate video files later.
A basic workflow would look something like this:
- Install OpenScreen via the Microsoft Store or from its GitHub page.
- Launch the app and grant the necessary screen recording permissions when prompted.
- Use the overlay toolbar to choose what to record (e.g., a specific window).
- To record myself and my screen at the same time on Windows 10, make sure to enable the webcam icon in the toolbar before starting.
- Click the record button to begin, and click it again to stop.
- The built-in editor will open automatically, allowing you to trim, add annotations, and then export your final video.
Key Features for Your Use Case
- Webcam Overlay: You can position, resize, and shape the webcam feed as a PiP overlay during recording .
- Screen & Audio Recording: You can record your whole screen, a specific window, or a selected area, along with both system audio and your microphone .
- Built-in Editor: After you stop recording, OpenScreen opens an editor where you can trim the video, adjust speed, and add text annotations or zoom effects .
- Free and Open-Source: It is 100% free for personal and commercial use with no watermarks or paid tiers.
