I encountered the same problem With the same steps

OBSERVED RESULT
Video is being recorded and at the end, it saves it as a video.
Spectacle freezes the entire screen until the video is stopped (using a keyboard shortcut, because the entire screen got frozen).

EXPECTED RESULT
The screenshot is taken, screen shouldn't freeze
