SUMMARY
I just noticed that the recorder docker will sometimes store empty frames in the docker.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  New image
2.  Turn on recorder docker
3.  Draw for 15~ minutes
4.  Generate video file from recording.
5. Notice flickering during playback.

OBSERVED RESULT

Right now, in "Krita Version: 5.3.0-prealpha (git 6b099fb)", I just noticed that some frames recorded by the recording docker are blank, completely in the canvas color. When generating a video, this results in flickering.

EXPECTED RESULT

Previously, during June, I used "Krita Version: 5.3.0-prealpha (git e29803b)", and that one didn't have this issue.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

I think it could be caused by Instant Preview being on? I decided to report this bug early before it falls out of my head. Needs more experimentation.
