Question / Help Window Capture doesn't work

[edumaxsantos]

Hey, I've googled it a few times, but none of the solutions have worked for me.
Window capture won't work for any text editor like Atom, VS code, Sublime Text. Is there anything I can do to make it work?

Hey, I recently had a similar issue when trying to use window capture with an app I made in electron. Turns out the issue was related to hardware acceleration. I ran into the issue using VS Code recently and found that it was the same issue. I can get around the issue by disabling hardware acceleration for the applications. For an electron app it's just a function call ( not that you would care much).

For VSCode, I run `code --disable-gpu` from the command line.

Hope this tip helps. Good luck!

any updates on this? it's annoying to have to disable the GPU for programs that need it but I want to record and are electron based
