The "stop" button (recorder icon) image seems to appear in the taskbar when performing a second screen recording only if the green-recorder dialog box image is closed between recordings. Is this normal function? It took me a while to figure out, because once a recording is started, the dialog disappears, but when the recording is stopped (using the taskbar icon), the dialog appears again. So, I just assumed that I could just use the open dialog box to record my second screen recording. But without closing the dialog, even after stopping the first recording, the stop icon doesn't appear in the task bar. Hope this makes sense, it's very hard to describe. It might be better to leave the dialog closed when a recording has been stopped, forcing the user to launch the app again. But, in any case, this is a great app and I truly appreciate the effort.

The system tray icon is no longer there. You are using an older version, please update to the latest version via the steps mentioned in the project's README.md file.

Thanks. I did have install the latest version per the README.md file, but now I have an audio problem. Specifically, everything seems to record fine, but at the end of the recording there's a weird high pitched noise that continues until I end the playback. And, in this version, I must use the dialogue to stop the recording, which means it appears in the recording if I'm doing a desktop screen capture. Any ideas?

I'm attaching a file of the output from the run. green-recorder_output.pdf

Any idea on the output?

I have no idea about the error you are facing.

Do you still face it with the latest version?
