Title:
shell-recorder does not close file when recording is stopped
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in gnome-shell source package in Precise:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
According to https://live.gnome.org/GnomeShell/CheatSheet the GS
screencast tool can be started and stopped with the key combination
Control+Shift+Alt+R. I've found that stopping a recording does not
close the file that is being recorded to (visible in the output of
`lsof | grep webm`).
If I press Control+Shift+Alt+R again, instead of incrementing a
counter and starting a recording to a new file, as the docs state, the
recording is appended to the previous file (even if it has since been
moved somewhere else). It definitely appears as if the file descriptor
is not being closed, and shell-recorder is in fact pausing the the
recording, rather than stopping it. See
http://developer.gnome.org/shell/unstable/shell-shell-recorder.html
Another thing to note is that when playing back the recorded .webm
file, VLC shoes "0:00" as the recording length, eg. it appears unable
to determine the length, as if the file is incomplete... or was never
closed properly.
