Usage (Packaged)
Use protocol activation to activate screenbits protocol to run a command for a packaged installation (through Microsoft Store) of Screenbits in the following form:
start screenbits://[command]/?arg[=value]
The following example starts recording without bringing the app to foreground:
start screenbits://record/?background
You can also use explorer program instead of start command to activate a protocol if you need to specify an executable file to launch the command. This is useful for creating tasks in scheduler programs such as Windows Task Scheduler:
explorer screenbits://record/?background
Usage (Non-Packaged)
To run a command for a non-packaged installation (through Steam) of Screenbits, simply pass the command and arguments to the application executable:
[path-to-executable]screenbits.exe command [-arg[=value]]
The following example starts recording without bringing the app to foreground:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Screenbits\screenbits.exe" record -background
