Hello everybody!
I am having a problem with DOSBox's video capture feature.
I am using DOSBox 0.74 for Linux, I'm on Linux Mint 10. Since the keyboard shortcut to start recording video in DOSBox is CTRL+ALT+F5, I remapped it to SHIFT+F5 to avoid the issue with Linux switching consoles.
SHIFT+F5 worked fine to start recording video. A new video file popped up in my DOSBox config\capture folder, and I saw that its size was growing, showing that it was recording at the time. I pressed SHIFT+F5 again, and it stopped recording. Ok, that's fine!
Here's where the problem comes in...Whenever I start DOSBox now, it just starts recording on its own when I run an application. I noticed this because all of my more graphic intense DOS games started running very choppy. The recording doesn't start when I'm at the DOS prompt screen, only when I run a game.
Pressing SHIFT+F5 disables the recording, but it just starts again on its own during the same session.
Am I doing something wrong here? Can anyone help me figure this out? Help is much appreciated! Thank you in advance!
