Recording is flickering #492

Open Andre25 opened 8 years ago

Andre25 commented 8 years ago

I used ssr and had no problems. Now, when I try to record the screen, I get a flickering movie. I have no idea what the problem is.

I use ssr in Fedora Linux. There it's the version 0.3.6.

I have tried a lot. For example to uninstall ssr and after that to install new. Or to delete the file settings.conf. Also I tried different setting regarding video codec and other. But all is not helping. The sound is correctly recorded but the video contains only a early picture which is flickering.

Unfortunately I need the function to record the screen for a soon project.

Run glxinfo | grep : and paste the results here.

Also, what window manager are you using?

Is this with the OpenGL capture or without it?

At this stage I suspect something's clashing with an X library.

GNOME Version 3.20.2

Is this with the OpenGL capture or without it?

I don't know!?

At this stage I suspect something's clashing with an X library.

How I can find out if it is the problem? And how I can resolve the problem?

Does it look similar to #489 ?

CONFIRMED: I installed xfce4 and it worked! It´s a problem with KDE 5, not SSR.

I use GNOME. And the next thing is, that I used ssr without problems and from one day to another it didn't works anymore?!

I have been experiencing an issue where my desktop flashes on the screen, after upgrading to Linux Mint 18. It is like my windows disappear for split seconds. I'll see if I can make a recording later.

MaartenBaert commented 8 years ago

Multiple people have said that this was caused by some update. Can someone try to downgrade packages such as the X server or the window manager to see if that solves it? I can't track this down unless I know the exact version that caused the problem.
