Install ffmpeg version 6.1 or later and then reinstall GPU Screen Recorder to fix this issue. The flatpak version of GPU Screen Recorder comes with a newer version of ffmpeg so no extra steps are needed. ## I can't play the video in my browser directly or in discord Browsers and discord don't support hevc video codec at the moment. Choose h264 video codec instead with the -k h264 option. Note that websites such as youtube support hevc so there is no need to choose h264 video codec if you intend to upload the video to youtube or if you want to play the video locally or if you intend to edit the video with a video editor. Hevc allows for better video quality (especially at lower file sizes) so hevc (or av1) is recommended for source videos. ## I get a black bar/distorted colors on the right/bottom in the video 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 in the AMD driver that hasn't been fixed yet. This issue happens at certain video resolutions. If you get this issue then a workaround is to record with h264 video codec instead (using the -k h264 option). -## The video is glitched (looks like checkerboard pattern) or black -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. ## The video doesn't display or has a green/yellow overlay This can happen if your video player is missing the H264/HEVC video codecs.
