Ugh... now that I started testing with SDL2, different output types, etc. - I can't reproduce it... even with the SDL1 I was using when it happened :(

If that helps - the minimize/restore thing happened while I was doing the screenshots/captures for the CPU and CHKCPU tests #4246

And now while I tested the Break key in Opera games - minimizing issue happened again (of course I wasn't recording the screen). Now that I try to do it on purpose - doesn't happen anymore...

I guess I found out how to reproduce your issue.

Issue1: Launch DOSBox-X SDL1 (Windows) by output=ttf and minimize the window.
Issue2: When in TTF mode (SDL1, Windows), capture video. Screen will automatically switch to non-TTF output. Stop capture and minimize the window.

PR #4462 fixes both issues.

Thanks, @maron2000!
I can't test right now, but happy that you found & fixed it.
