What is Screen Recorder?

The 'Screen Recorder' is a handy Chrome extension designed for users who need to generate video recordings from their web camera, desktop, or window tabs. It prominently illustrates the immense potential of the MediaStream recording API coupled with the WebRTC Screen sharing. System audio recording, however, is currently accessible only on Windows and ChromeOS via Chrome Dev or Beta channel.

This is a great app and all, but the only problem is now that it's just only playing audio from the Chrome tab and not the other things. I think this happens to other screen recording apps too. Whatever is happening needs to be fixed.
