Can I start a GoVideo recording from outside the Chrome browser?

As GoVideo is an extension within the Chrome browser, its controls and usage can only be accessed through Chrome itself. 

Possible workarounds

1.  Use an external monitor
   • Start the recording from a Chrome browser on an external monitor and select the main monitor as the area to be recorded.
     
     
2. Shrink the size of the browser as much as possible and hide it behind the main application that you're recording.
   • Hiding the browser ensures that when recording starts, the browser will be hidden with only the application being recorded in view. This will give the illusion that the recording was actually started from outside the Chrome browser.
