This is mostly an issue on AMD. For av1 it's a hardware issue, see: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/issues/9185. For hevc it's a software issue that has been fixed but not released yet, see: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/issues/10985.

This is an issue on some intel integrated gpus on wayland caused by power saving option. Right now the only way to fix this is to either record on X11 (maybe only with window capture option) or to record with the `-w portal` option (usually only available on Wayland).
+The video can also be black when using software such as prime-run. This is not supported.

This can happen if your video player is missing the H264/HEVC video codecs. Either install the codecs or use mpv.

-This can happen if you use software such as prime-run to run GPU Screen Recorder. Such software should not be used to run GPU Screen Recorder.
-GPU Screen Recorder needs to run on the same GPU that you use to display your monitors graphics to work.
