Internally, like the other screen sharing apps for Chrome, SnagIt is using WebRTC to record the screencast. Next type chrome://flags in the browser address bar and enable the setting that says Enable Screen Capture Support in getUserMedia(). The first step is to install the SnagIt app and extension from the Chrome Store.

If you are not using the latest version of Google Chrome, it may take a few steps to enable screencasting support inside your browser.

Upload screencasts to YouTube or Google Drive The GIF is sent to your Google Drive for quick sharing or you can download it locally as well. The only condition is that the duration of your recorded video should be 20 seconds or less. The most recent version of SnagIt for Chrome can save your screencast video as an animated GIF, a format that is perfect for publishing quick & short demos.

The recorded videos can be directly uploaded to YouTube or Google Drive from within the SnagIt app itself. The extension is free and it can capture screenshots of your desktop as well as screencast videos. SnagIt, the popular screen capture program for Windows and Mac, is also available for Google Chrome.
