PhantomRec v1.9 bug fixes
PhantomRec v1.9.0
Fixes
-
Eliminated text stacking in the status label. When no custom background image was set, old status text was not cleared between updates, causing text to stack and become unreadable. A black fill is now applied during
WM_PAINTwhen no background is present, ensuring every update renders on a clean canvas. -
Reduced CPU overhead during recording. The live timer, capture method name, audio status indicator, and marquee progress bar animation were updating every second during active recording. These unnecessary paint cycles caused GDI contention with the mpeg4 encoder, producing micro-stutters on low-end CPUs. The UI now displays a static status during capture and avoids all periodic repaints.
-
Conversion progress updates no longer overlap stale text. Progress percentage during post-conversion now renders cleanly without ghosting from previous updates.
