Remotion Canvas Capture records an area—or a whole webpage—as a high-resolution H.264 MP4 or VP9 WebM using Chromium's experimental HTML-in-canvas implementation.
Canvas Capture requires Chrome 157.0.8080.0 or newer with Canvas Draw Element enabled.
Chrome 155 and newer can install the extension and display the browser setup requirements. In a supported Chrome version,
open chrome://flags/#canvas-draw-element, enable Canvas Draw Element, and restart
Chrome. The recorder shows a setup warning if the required APIs are unavailable;
this does not necessarily mean the flag is disabled.
Follow the Canvas Capture installation guide.
