Bug ID: 379111
Summary: Vertical sync causes flickering on screen capturing
Product: kwin
Version: 5.9.4
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: compositing
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: michal.dybc...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
Vertical synchronization causes screen capturing to flicker. I discovered it
during tests with OBS and simplescreenrecorder.
Disabling vertical sync stops flickering completely but introduces small,
sporadical screen tearing when moving windows so it's desirable to have this
option on, however, it conflicts with screen capturing programs.
I already informed OBS developer about it to see if he can do something about
it on his end, but the fact that this bug happens in more capturing programs
shows a basic problem on kwin end.
I made a video showing how disabling and enabling vertical sync influences the
flickering:
