Record discord video

Discord is a platform that connects business, gaming, and education communities by allowing them to text, send videos and images, and call each other. Discord helps gamers communicate easily, but it is not possible to record video calls using the application. The only way you can record Discord videos is by using recorder applications.

However, due to privacy settings, Discord group members have to give consent before you record the call.

All the group members who have enabled the “Ask me to start recording” setting will receive a notification asking them to approve the video recording. If they deny it, the video recording request will automatically be cancelled.
