class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Windrecorder, the &#8220;personal memory finder&#8221;, records everything you see and do on your screen and allows you to rewind and search through it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The application uses FFmpeg to record screen activity in 15-minute fragments<\/strong> and then indexes them using a local Windows OCR API and image embedding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>You can ignore certain applications or areas of the screen<\/strong>, and only record one screen regardless of your settings, although support for multiple monitors is planned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The application allows you to view daily and periodic screen times, as well as circadian summaries, and can generate monthly light boxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You have to take into account some disadvantages: FFmpeg can occasionally consume a large amount of memory, and instant rewind is not an option. <strong>You have to wait for each 15-minute video fragment to finish recording before you can rewind it.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"sc-card-program\">\r\n  <div
