Recording: lossless encoders, unfiltered, larger buffer
Recording: 4:4:4 goes to NVENC as CUDA frames
Document the recording sources
The microphone section becomes the list of sources: inputs, output
devices, system sound. Track layout per source, every source on the
recording's clock, and the smaller mentions across the pages.
Recording: GPU frames measured again, CPU is lower
Recording: hardware encoders get the picture on the GPU
Describe encoding inside the process
- Recording: threads, muxer queue, closer, what the encoder is told,
mix and microphone clock, what in-process costs.
- ffmpeg: loading the libraries, the shared build download, staging,
updates within the header major, two frame probe.
- Encoder settings: options as name and value, qp on NVENC, AV1 times four.
- Audio, Building, Screenshots, HDR, Home: follow-ups.
Recording in 4:4:4, and the format model behind it
Recording: one YuvFormat for both -pix_fmt, with the layout table.
Encoder settings: the 4:4:4 switch and which encoders can.
High dynamic range: readback rings per format, shared when equal.
ffmpeg: the 4:4:4 probe, its cache keys, and current function names.
6.0: worker threads per area, screenshots without waiting for the GPU, encoder warning
Screenshots and Recording: the clipboard, and a toast that shows the file
Ctrl+F10 had no mention at all. Clicking the toast after a screenshot or
a recording opens Explorer with the file selected; the page says how long
it stays and why it runs on a thread of its own.
The program is called qBlank
Every page now says the name the program carries from 4.0 on. What still says
CapView says it deliberately: the shared section names the camera is found
through, the migrator, and the sentences that are about a version which really
was called that.
Updates gains the section the rename needed -- the migrator shipped under the
old file name, the release asked for by repository number and asset label, the
executable that renames itself on its first start, and settings recognised by
their contents rather than by their file name. Home, Building and Configuration
point at it.
Document what 3.1.1 changed
Four things, across five pages.
The standard search now says on screen why it is running and which step
of how many it is on, so "Automatic video standard" gets a section on
what the two lines mean, why the colour round counts steps rather than
standards, and where the reason comes from.
The same page gets the manual search on F7: the blind spot it exists for
-- colour that is wrong rather than missing, which no threshold here can
see -- why the request is a deadline rather than a flag, and the three
cases it refuses. "Source and signal" names that blind spot as the third
limit of automatic mode and points at it; "Shortcuts" lists the key,
counts twelve actions instead of eleven, and says why F7 sits next to F8.
"Recording" gets the source-change split under Splitting: the two
thresholds, why the frame size is rounded before comparing, why the rate
is compared undoubled, and what the 1.5 seconds are for. The
out-of-bounds read underneath it is written down as the reason the split
is not optional.
"Encoder settings" gets the bitrate and quality pair under rate control,
and why the bitrate slider became logarithmic: linearly, the range this
hardware lands in took nine percent of the track.
The long version: one page per feature, and what the code does
