  1. v1.0.3Dernière

    Capptivo v1.0.3

    This release is focused on making Windows export actually work, cutting recorder/editor overhead, and fixing a handful of ways the app could freeze or eat your desktop clicks.

    Points forts

    • Export cut to two encode routes (Annex-B → ffmpeg stream copy, RGBA → ffmpeg hardware encode); MP4 muxing moved into Rust/ffmpeg
    • Much faster export: frames read straight off the GPU, pipelined with fenced PBOs
    • Export recovers from WebGL context loss and retries instead of a bogus "no WebGL" error
    • Blocking export progress dialog with Cancel so the timeline can't be touched mid-export
    • 30 or 60 fps capture picker (screen at 60, face-cam at 30), persisted between sessions, with an export warning when you request a higher rate than you captured
    • Mic warm-up on select so Record no longer waits on Bluetooth open latency
    • Smoother recorder bar drag and a working grip on the live HUD
    • Capture frame buffers pooled and reused instead of allocating ~33MB per 4K frame
    • WGC frames dropped before GPU readback, removing a staging copy that stalled high-refresh desktops
    • Background jobs (proxy, camera track, thumbnails, captions) run below normal priority with bounded thread pools on Windows
    • In-app updater toast with real download progress and Later/Update (editor/library only)
    • Feedback dialog with contacts, plus rolling capptivo.log and warn-level errors.log (Open Error Log… from the tray)
    • App version shown in Config under About

    Corrections

    • Windows: MP4 export no longer hangs forever on WebView2's hardware H.264 encoder — export probes with real frames and every wait has a watchdog
    • WebM without a suitable encoder now errors clearly instead of silently writing an MP4
    • Setup overlay no longer swallows every desktop click — click-through fails closed on every path
    • macOS source picker freeze
    • Windows area-guide freezes: crop-sized dashed border (excluded from capture) replaces the fullscreen dim overlay; Esc cancels; selection resets when the recorder hides
    • Stop is no longer blocked by a wedged encoder — ffmpeg finalize timeout is reachable
    • Playback stops when you drag the playhead or click the track
    • Thumbnail/poster generation failing silently (MJPEG rejected the pixel format)

  2. v1.0.2

    Capptivo v1.0.2

    Points forts

    • GIF export Speed slider (1×–4×) for shorter, smaller shareable GIFs

    Corrections

    • Windows: opening Recordings from the recorder bar no longer shows a blank window or crashes when starting a recording

  3. v1.0.1

    Capptivo v1.0.1

    Points forts

    • Native mic + system audio capture (SCK / WASAPI / Pulse) with face-cam A/V sync
    • Signed auto-updates from GitHub Releases (startup, tray, and settings)
    • Bundled capptivo-ffmpeg / capptivo-ffprobe sidecars for Linux packages

    Corrections

    • Linux: enable cpal and correct Pulse mic channel typing
    • Export: release preview GPU before export to avoid WebGL init failures on Windows
    • Preview: show face-cam while paused (not shadow-only PiP)

    Points forts

    • Native installers for macOS 13+, Windows 10 (1903+), and Linux (PipeWire 1.0+)
    • Menubar recorder with global hotkey, face-cam, mic, and system audio
    • Smart follow-cursor zoom, click-based auto zooms, and timeline fragments
    • On-screen annotations while recording (pen, highlighter, shapes, text)
    • Editor presets, backgrounds, cursor styles, and on-device Whisper captions
    • Export to MP4, WebM, and GIF — 11 UI languages, MIT licensed
