QClips 2.0.3
Fixes
• QClips no longer takes the mouse and keyboard from your game. We fixed every way we found that QClips could pull the focus away from a game. QClips Lite now never shows anything over your games (no Alt+Z panel, notification, performance line or player): the save sound tells you a clip was saved. In both versions, starting QClips again or Windows restarting it no longer brings its window over a game, the tray menu gives the focus back when it closes, and tray notifications wait until you leave the game.
• Games that were missing from clips. Sometimes a clip showed your desktop or browser instead of the game, while the game's sound played. QClips now notices when this happens and, while that game is in front, records it with Windows Graphics Capture, another way of capturing the screen that sees such games. It switches back by itself when you leave the game. The few seconds before it notices can still miss the game.
• Smaller recording sizes no longer stutter on 2K and 4K monitors. Recording at 1080p (or another size below your monitor's) on an NVIDIA or AMD graphics card now makes the picture smaller on the graphics card instead of the processor, so 120 fps keeps up. QClips checks at start that this works on your PC and otherwise uses the old way. These videos also carry the right colour information, so every player shows their colours correctly.
• Smoother 2K and 4K recordings at high frame rates on NVIDIA. At 1440p 120 fps, 4K and similar, the encoder now uses a faster setting so it keeps up with the game instead of dropping frames.
• Saving from the Alt+Z panel ends the clip when you opened the panel. A fullscreen game minimizes when the panel opens, so clips saved from it could end on your desktop instead of the game.
• Clips saved from the Alt+Z panel are named after your game, not "Desktop".
• Better reports when the game doesn't show in a clip. The diagnostic report now lists your monitors (resolution, refresh rate, HDR), the capture and encoder settings in use, and what QClips found (the game missing from the capture, or the game on a monitor that isn't recorded). If a game is still missing from your clips, please send the diagnostic report right after it happens.
• The recording engine (FFmpeg) is updated to version 8.1.3.
