• doing VNC/screenshare connections to mac mini and recording from my mac works pretty good (though, iirc i think i don't get the mouse click stuff inside screenflow, so i can't do any special effects with clicks or increasing mouse pointer size
• i took one video at a custom screen size of 1600 x 900, that worked ok, though the fullsize resolution of that monitor is the correct ratio for 1080p, so that's also fine.
• the attached image i think is what i used at one point to size a dual arrangement of the mac mini over screenshare with a simulator, like in this video: https://youtu.be/nSgDq8uEFTk -- though the exact sizing of the mac mini vnc i don't recall, and should try to to document at some point
• (UPDATE) 1344x1008 seems sorta close?
• remember to change the setting to "show notifications when sharing screen" if that's important for the vid you're making
• remember before complicated setup of "walkthrough-ish" video, to delete all devices registered to mac mini, to avoid "already assigned to another parent" errors
• when re-doing the v2.5.0 "getting started" full tour vid, i ended up just blacking out the desktop and getting the simulator and screen sharing (using 1344x1008) close enough, with some black around them
