This will allow variable refresh rate to work when recording fullscreen applications. Note that some applications such as mpv will not work in fullscreen mode. A fix is being developed for this.\ GPU Screen Recorder only supports h264 and hevc codecs at the moment which means that webm files are not supported.\ CPU usage may be higher on wayland than on x11 when using nvidia. ### TEMPORARY ISSUES diff --git a/src/main.cpp b/src/main.cpp index 51b8499..c76a491 100644 --- a/src/main.cpp +++ b/src/main.cpp @@ -677,9 +677,9 @@ static void usage_full() { fprintf(stderr, " The display is the display (monitor) name in xrandr and if \"screen\", \"screen-direct\" or \"screen-direct-force\" is selected then all displays are recorded.\n"); fprintf(stderr, " If this is \"focused\" then the currently focused window is recorded.
