Offline/Real-Time Runtime Camera Exporter - MP4, PNG & Screenshots (Windows) screenshot 1
About this asset
Offline/Real-Time Runtime Camera to MP4 Exporter is a Unity runtime/editor solution for deterministic offline rendering, real-time recording, and screenshot capture on Windows.
Export camera footage to H.264 MP4 with optional AAC audio, lossless PNG image sequences with optional WAV audio, or individual PNG and JPEG screenshots. MP4 encoding uses the native Windows Media Foundation encoders, without FFmpeg, external executables, or separately downloaded software.
Capture a selected Unity Camera or the Game View with configurable resolution, frame rate, recording length, output naming, audio settings, and cancellation behavior. Optional asynchronous GPU readback, GPU-accelerated video processing, and background PNG encoding help reduce interruptions during demanding exports.
Deterministic frame callbacks provide precise control over animations, simulations, replay data, visualizers, generated content, and synchronized audio. Real-time mode instead prioritizes gameplay responsiveness when the machine cannot sustain the requested capture rate.
The asset also includes progress and completion events, memory estimates, performance diagnostics, export reports, configurable screenshot capture, sample scenes, and a documented runtime API.
Suitable for visualizers, replay systems, simulations, automated content generation, in-game recording, screenshots, and projects requiring predictable frame-by-frame output.
Windows only. Tested with Unity 2022.3 LTS and Unity 6000.4.
