I created this page as a documentation for one of the best Linux recording software. As a beginner, I encountered an issue with the `libvndiai-fbc.so` library being missing, so I provided some troubleshooting steps to fix it.

New page

[https://git.dec05eba.com/gpu-screen-recorder/about/ gpu-screen-recorder] is a screen recorder that has minimal impact on system performance by recording your monitor using the GPU only, similar to shadowplay on windows. It is the fastest screen recording tool for Linux.

==== libnvidia-fbc.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory ====
The possibility of this error arising exists if you possess an NVIDIA graphics card, as the package does not include the NVIDIA X11 libraries in its wrapper by default.
