How to record Zoom on macOS using iShowU

If you'd like to create high quality recordings of zoom meetings, you can do that on macOS using iShowU V6. There are a couple of options:

1. Record the whole screen
2. Record just the zoom application

Recording the whole screen is the default for V6. It's an easy option, and works great, but you do end up recording everything on your screen - and you might not want that.

An alternative is to use applications mode, where only a given application is recorded.

Let me show you:

1. I select Applications mode from the top tab bar, in V6.
2. Now I can tell V6 which apps I want to record. I'll choose an app and select "zoom".
3. Now, only zoom's windows are recorded!
4. I've made sure to enable record application audio and also record microphone, so that we record everyone on the call.  
5. You can see this if you open up the preview. Notice how Zoom is the only thing being recorded? There's no desktop, no icons, or other apps being shown.

Lets try it out!

I'll start the meeting.  Lets assume we go full screen, and a bunch of people join.

I could have started recording before the meeting began, but I wanted to show you that you can use the shortcut CMD-Shift-1 to begin a recording.  After the countdown ends, we're recording!

We record for as long as we want, and then use CMD-Shift-2 to stop the recording.

Lets take a look at what got recorded.

1. Just zoom!
2. Notice that the highliting (the green area indicator), is NOT in the recording
3. Going full screen "just worked".
4. My small "notes" (the TextEdit window) was not recorded, nor were desktop icons / background

It's that easy.
