I need to record a training video for a client and they want part of it to show how to use their client management software, so I'll need to record the computer screen while they are demonstrating the software.  Does any one know if Premiere Pro has a 'Screen Recording' facility

For PC Based machines I recommend OBS Studio. Small learning curve, but the cost of $0.00 makes up for it.

They certainley shgould have, but they don't. I use my MAC screen capture and then import it in Premier Pro. SHOULD NOT have to do that. It's a big oversight by Adobe, one that frustrates me on a daily basis.

Premiere is a Non-Linear Editor, not a screen capture program: big difference.

For comparison

You are on a Mac: can you screencapture with FCP?

Thank you Ann for your prompt reply. I've just spent over an hour searching through P Pro menus etc trying to find where a recorder would be and couldn't find anything. If they don't do it, that's why I couldn't find it.
