Version 2.2.21 - Build 1276

New:

• Improved recording performance!! Yes! Really! Screenflick now records even better. (It is especially noticeable in 60fps movies. For example, you previously may have had recordings result in 57-59 fps movies which, if recorded again, may now very well be 60 fps and appear significantly smoother.)

Changes:

• The movie's frame rate is now calculated much more accurately. (Still, this doesn't account for OS X itself dropping frames since it's impossible to know when that happens.)

Fixes:

• Added a fix which for a rare case causing the recorded volume to be lower than it should be.
• Fixed the "Show when launched" preference not working.
• Added a fix for a change in Mavericks causing the menubar to not be displayed when launched.

Version 2.2.20 - Build 1274

Changes:

• Minor tweaks. Fixes a crash on 10.6.8.

Version 2.2.14 - Build 1261

Version 2.2.13 - Build 1260

Fixes:

• Fixes a bug when recording at less than 100% scale and using a cursor-following camera mode such as "Relaxed Follow".

Version 2.2.12 - Build 1259

New:

• Misc tweaks.

Version 2.2.11 - Build 1257

New:

• The movie bounds window can now be shown when using a "follow" camera mode.

Fixes:

• Fixed crashes that could occur when the screen resolution changed during the countdown. It's not allowed and wasn't handled properly (like it is once the recording has started).

New:

• Each movie export is done in an external process to avoid hitting the 32-bit memory limit and crashing.

Fixes:

• A critical bug fix which will prevent crashing when the screen resolution changes. (The previous fix was not 100% reliable. Sorry.)
• A clearer error message should show up to explain the OS bug during recording which is finally fixed in the upcoming OS X 10.8.3
• Fixes a bug where a recording with a pause could look like it is paused forever when played back.
• Fixed some minor graphical glitches with the progress bar during export.
