Recording fails the 2nd time #66

Hi!

When I record a piece from the screen everything works as expected and I can save or upload to dropbox without issues. Except, when I try to record a second movie weird things happen. Pressing the Capture Video button doesnt do anything and some small popup also appears in the left upper corner. Pressing those button doesnt do anything and I have to kill the Ginj process and start over.

Display configuration: Physical monitor #0: 1720x1440@-1720,0 Physical monitor #1: 1720x1440@0,0 Logical screen.config #0: 1720x1440@-1720,0 minus 0/0/48/0 insets, scaling: 100% Logical screen.config #1: 1720x1440@0,0 minus 0/0/48/0 insets, scaling: 100%

But same on a laptop without extra monitors:

Hi. Thanks for the report. I admit video is the most buggy feature of Ginj. I am relying on an interface between Java and ffmpeg and it clearly is flaky in multiple ways. I'll try to see if I can find a way, but maybe I'd better start again from scratch... In the meantime, exiting and restarting Ginj after each video capture might be a workaround but, well, I admit I'm using other tools for video captures ;-)
