** Description changed: I'm trying to record interaction with UI controls using byzanz-record, but am running into an issue where it will cut the beginning/end off of a recording if it detects no screen repaints. It can be reproduced by recording a GIF where the mouse is moved within the recording region continuously for the entire duration, and another where nothing happens for the entire duration. The latter will be a millisecond or two in duration. - The way I'm working around it is to print a message to the console every - 100 milliseconds to force screen repaints. Even though this occurs - outside of the recording region, it still works. + I figured out that it wasn't working by printing a message to the + console every 100 milliseconds to force screen repaints. Even though + this occurred outside of the recording region, it still worked. When I + knew that that worked, I forced screen updates via QQuickView, but not + everyone can or wants to do that. I'm not sure if this is the correct place to report bugs against byzanz; the only other place I saw was here: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=byzanz;dist=unstable Ubuntu release: Description: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS Release: 14.04 Package version: byzanz: - Installed: 0.3.0+git20140123-1 - Candidate: 0.3.0+git20140123-1 - Version table: - *** 0.3.0+git20140123-1 0 - 500 http://no.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/universe amd64 Packages - 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status + Installed: 0.3.0+git20140123-1 + Candidate: 0.3.0+git20140123-1 + Version table: + *** 0.3.0+git20140123-1 0 + 500 http://no.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/universe amd64 Packages + 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
