Other preferences

The General tab allows you to change the basic behavior of the program.

The program will notify you if a new version is available. Minor updates are absolutely free (for example, from v.1.3 to v.1.4). For major updates users with purchased Gecata by Movavi license will get a considerable discount.

 

This option helps you reduce your CPU usage and therefore speed up capture performance.

 

Windows Aero themes that use transparency require more processing power. This may slow down your computer while recording video. With this option enabled, the program will disable the Aero theme while recording to improve performance. The theme will be restored after recording has finished.

 

Try this option if you are experiencing problems capturing some program windows. In Windows 8 and above, the capture method is chosen automatically and this option is unavailable.

 

If you get an error message  when you start or stop recording your screen, try this option.

 

In case you experience trouble using the program and contact our support team, they might ask you to collect logs. The logs contain the program's actions for some period of time, as well as important error reports and descriptions. Extended logs give the most amount of information which may be essential to solving your problem.
