Description Martmists 2024-05-01 09:04:47 UTC

SUMMARY
Currently, window capture in OBS opens a popup for every window, instead of remembering the last known application like it does on X11. In the OBS community they said it was a Wayland issue, on the Wayland git they said it was an application or compositor issue.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Launch OBS
2. Add a window capture source
3. Restart OBS

OBSERVED RESULT
A popup appears

EXPECTED RESULT
It keeps a reference to the previous window title/application and captures it when it becomes available

Changed the title. It's not that it's restricted, it's that it's just not working, it used to work.

Sorry if I'm wrong, but doesn't restoring windows only apply to windows in the same session? I meant to open this issue not just for reopening in the same session, but more importantly, across multiple sessions and/or reboots.

This is fixed in Plasma 6.1.
