    I'm still not sure, so only viewable on your own firefox? It didn't capture sound coming from webpages or youtube how come? Tell you what I'll rate 5 stars since I trust your good for it updating and one day sound mode whomever does it you or firefox. Cause so far it does work, and I trust you will also not lie to the community. I'm giving the benefit of the doubt so 5 stars.

    Hello,

    This extension does not record sound, it only records the screen/application selected.
    It is using the standard screen capture API which does not support audio in Firefox for now https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Screen_Capture_API#browser_compatibility

    When it will be implemented by Mozilla, you will be able to capture it either to capture your web pages sound, your whole sound system or the defined microphone. But I do not know when or if Mozilla will implement it.

    On my side I did not have this need, but I can open an Issue about it for when I have to time to work on it.

    When you say: "only viewable on your own firefox", I suppose you are talking about the downloaded file. Its extension is webm, intended for Browsers to read it easily, but I think you can convert it to mp4 easily with an application or read it with some other application than a Browser.
    I will add the possibility to choose the extension from a list when I have the time.

    If you want you can open a pull request on the project with these features ready. Or open an Issue with details on what you may want from this application. I will try to work on this when I have some free time.

    Thank you for your comment. I will try to work on this addon soon.
