To read the story of Capture in following :link: https://mathewsachin.github.io/Captura/

Capture Screen, WebCam, Audio, Cursor, Mouse Clicks and Keystrokes.

I also learned about the program Captura from chatting room. Captura was first developed as an open source program first initiated by Mathew Sachin. But the author eventually abandoned the development and maintenance of this software due to some unpleasant experiences (#406) and a shift in interest (#570).

Looking at the Github code stats, the entire repository probably has less than 50k lines of code. In the spirit of learning, I cloned this repository and found that it compiles directly on Visual Studio 2022, which is still very nice. During the period I also found some software bugs. this is a good software, it is a pity to be discontinued. So I want to have the opportunity to take over the maintenance of this software, so I made a fork mrchipset/nCaptura to start my modification.

I changed the repository name to nCaptura, which means new-Captura. Hopefully, it will lead to a new trip for this project.

captura's Issues

Recording flicker issue

As is described in MathewSachin#552 and MathewSachin#563, when recording with DesktopDuplication mode, it will flash.

My initial speculation is due to a bug in DulicationRecorder.
