Screen recorder (Ctrl-shift-backspace) stops saving video files after two takes #436

I could not find OBS mouse cursor hide setting, so I started recording with NP internal recorder. After two takes the recorder stopped video file output and saved only audio files from then on. Did not test all encoder options. I use NVenc mostly.

I also encountered locking into 100 percent CPU usage for a long time after recording minutes long HD files. That might have been CPU encoding. GPU was low. Tried hard resetting everything through task manager, fearing the system would melt down. Steam would not come down, so rebooted the machine in panic, cooling fans blowing like a vacuum cleaner. Coming later back to the saved file I noticed it was upside down. Freaky deaky stuff.

Short file recording works safely, with abovementioned two file video file limit.

Sometimes only one file is captured, and no further takes containing video are possible. Sometime file contains video partially at the beginning half of the capture.

Yeh I should probably just remove the video recorder as its so unstable/poor performing
