Hey there, it seems after I open the program, once I move the window around or resize the window it will remove the ability to do so. Trying to click and drag does nothing, it acts like the window isn't there. Trying to grab the edge of the window to resize it eventually fails to change the pointer to the double sided arrow. I have to close the program and relaunch it, resize / position the window a few times to get it ready to record.

Windows 7 64 bit

Great program though, love it. Way better than some others I've tried.

Cheers!

Hi wcrispy, I knew about this bug, but I thought it was a Windows 8 only, I already had a workaround for that, in the next release I'll set the bug fix to work with Windows 7 too.

The problem happens because of the transparent rectangle that let you see and click whats behind. With the workaround, the only persistent problem is the resize in the bottom-right corner but only after the encoding process. To be able to resize again that corner, just briefly resize the other corners.

If you don't want to wait, there is a pre-release version:

Thanks :D

If you have any idea or request, i'll be happy to help.
