It was complaining on Ubuntu when I started it that either ffmpeg needs
to be installed or a gnome-shell needs to be running. I didn't log the
exact error message but that was more or less it.

When I add ffmpeg it worked without the warning and actually started
recording my screen as expected. After pressing the record button of
course ;()

I tested once without ffmpeg and once with ffmpeg. 

The former failed to record.

Yup I tested both in Ubuntu.

Let me know if you'd like any more info or if I wasn't precise enough
in my description.

all best,
