Best of all, VLC is free, so what do you have to lose in trying to use it as one of the screen recorders for Mac. VLC allows some basic adjustments like which audio input device to capture, what frame rate to use for videos (it offers a decent max of 30fps), and allows following the mouse for easier focus as well, among other parameters. To access this “hidden” feature, navigate to the File menu and Open Capture Device, where you need to change the source selection to Screen.
