Rectangular region video recording is also reported in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=469779 It should also adhere the set save location for screenshot as set in the application, so that I don't clutter my home directory. It seems this is already fixed in the upcoming 24.02 release. |
SUMMARY ***Please refer to [See Also] for other bugs/issues regarding Spectacle 23.04 Video Recording. There are no configuration options for video recording in Spectacle settings. All Spectacle settings refer to taking screenshots. Examples: - There is no "Start a video recording" option for "When launching Spectacle". - There are no shortcuts that can be configured to start/stop a video recording. - (Important) No options to change video encoding, no option to toggle hardware acceleration at all. **This causes high CPU usage during recording. My system slowed to a halt once when I started a video recording** (Wishlist) Add a "rectangular region" video recording option. ***Please refer to [See Also] for other bugs/issues regarding Spectacle 23.04 Video Recording. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open Spectacle configuration page. OBSERVED RESULT - No options to configure video recording functionality. - No options to set shortcuts for video recording functionality. EXPECTED RESULT - General configurability for video recording functionality.
