Childprocess 5.0 gets conflict with ScreenRecorder now

[Rajagopalan-M]

Screen recorder works with ChildProcess 4.1.0 but it's not working with 5.0. Can you increase this limit?

last time same issue happened and you fixed here https://github.com/kapoorlakshya/screen-recorder/issues/99

@Rajagopalan-M I'll try to get a release out in a week or so.

[Rajagopalan-M]

Sure thanks.

[kapoorlakshya]

@Rajagopalan-M What version of Ruby are you on? I am leaning toward only supporting 3.0+ in the next major version release since 2.x is now EOL.

[kapoorlakshya]

Also which version of watir/selenium webdriver are you using? Only childprocess < 5.0 is supported by selenium-webdriver up to v4.6 and then removed in selenium-webdriver v4.7 onward. I am also considering removing childprocess in favor of using Process.spawn - https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/issues/11251.

@Rajagopalan-M Give this branch a try:

gem 'screen-recorder', git: 'https://github.com/kapoorlakshya/screen-recorder.git', branch: 'update_deps'

it removes childprocess and os gems so you can use whatever version you like for these.

I don't know how to use this. I always install using gem install screen-recorder and then I will check. Or can you commit to the main branch and let me install the new version of screen recorder gem and check it?

This is to be placed in a Gemfile and then installed using bundler - https://bundler.io/guides/gemfile.html

It's the recommended way for managing gems in a project.

I don't use Gem file in my project and so I don't use bundler either.
