Bug Report Browser dropping source

[Dajova]

I have reported this on the IRC chat, but it seems like its getting such a huge issue atm, that i have to report it here.

Anyway, this is what's happening:
Adding a new software capture -> window capture (firefox or chrome, happening to both) -> sub-region -> color key
Works fine at first.

Something happens in between that and when the source gets blanked out (that i have no idea what). Meaning that no matter what i do, the source in unusable and i have to remake it from scratch.

Basically, it works the first couple of times after i re added them, but later, it just stops showing anything... like the source cannot be found, even tho i have the window open and everything. It's very annoying, since i have to remake them at least 3 times per week. I would have lived with it if it wasn't for the fact that they are sources i use on pretty much all of my scenes = added as global sources.

Not sure if anyone else have this issue with firefox/chrome or any other browser.

EDIT: As a side note, i do not use several windows, everything is on the same window, using tabs (as Jim described to me that it could be the issue).

Well it has to find the window based upon the title and internal window class name. If it doesn't find a matching window of the same name it'll just search by class, and it'll probably end up picking up a different window. As a workaround, you could try using a different browser specifically for that particular page and use your regular browser for everything else, that way it will always end up picking the right window. Capturing an application that has so many windows like that is just going to be problematic in general as it's difficult to know exactly what window it's supposed to pick

The thing is... I only use 1 window for my browser (firefox) with pinned tabs. And the same happens with Chrome as well, so i don't know what to do.
