The issue

1. App Switching: capturing pauses automatically.
2. App Switching Back: capturing continues automatically.
3. Video Saving by Button in the App.

The Resulting Video Duration equals the difference in time from Start to Stop, including Pause Time. During Pause Time, there is the last frozen frame without audio.

So, the pausing is not working.

Log output

1. 

-> applicationWillResignActive()

OnApplicationPause: pausing video capture
-> applicationDidEnterBackground()

2.

-> applicationWillEnterForeground()
-> applicationDidBecomeActive()

OnApplicationFocus: capturing video again

3.

There is also random experience when video is not saved at 3rd step

This has been fixed and will make it into the next release.

Not sure what you mean by this but hopefully the fix for the capture not being paused will cover it.

This has been fixed in AVPro Movie Capture version 5.3.1. Please let us know if your issue is not resolved.
