Comment (by Shmerl):
To add the the above, even though ffmpeg has kmsgrab option, it's not an
adequate method for Wayland and Linux desktop in general either. So ffmpeg
really needs pipewire + xdg portal support to work for screen and window
capturing.
See what KDE developers have to say about that here:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=470440
''> kmsgrab is not a good way to do screen recording and will only get
more problematic over time, as we start to use more hardware features it
can't deal with.''
