Improvements

Mac Recording Reliability

• Camera Recording Fixed on Mac — camera footage in Advanced recordings no longer freezes a few seconds into recording while the audio continues. The full camera take is now captured from start to finish.
• System Sound Now Records on Mac — enabling System Sound now captures audio playing on your Mac, so app audio, videos, and calls are included in your recording.

Audio

• Complete Audio in Exports — exported videos no longer lose audio during the final seconds, ensuring your full recording makes it into the finished file.
• Microphone and System Sound Kept Separate — your microphone and computer audio are now stored as independent tracks instead of being blended together during recording, making them easier to manage in the editor. Recordings now follow the same structure across Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Camera Quality

• Sharper Camera Footage — camera recording quality now better matches your camera's resolution instead of using a fixed low-quality default, improving results on 1080p and 4K webcams.
• More Reliable Camera Playback — camera footage is now saved as a standard, seekable video file, making playback, scrubbing, and exporting more dependable.

Camera Bubble

• Smarter Screen Recovery — if the camera bubble was last positioned on a monitor that is no longer connected, it now opens on an available screen instead of appearing off-screen. When the monitor is reconnected, the bubble returns to its previous position.

Recording Setup

• Clearer Microphone Toggle — the microphone control now clearly shows whether it is On or Off, replacing the confusing “Mute” label.

Fixes

• Fixed camera video freezing a few seconds into Advanced recordings on macOS.
• Fixed System Sound recording nothing on macOS.
• Fixed exported videos losing the final several seconds of audio.
• Fixed the camera bubble disappearing for the entire duration of Advanced recordings.
• Fixed the camera bubble reopening off-screen after a monitor was disconnected.
• Fixed the camera bubble briefly appearing in the first frame of Quick recordings.
• Fixed the microphone toggle showing “Mute” while the microphone was active.
• Fixed camera footage being saved in a format that could seek unreliably during preview and export.

Thank you for using Doculigent! Your feedback and feature requests continue to shape the future of the app.

Improvements

Recording Sync & Reliability

• Perfected Cursor Sync — fixed the recorded cursor overlay drifting ahead of the actual screen content, especially during click-and-drag actions, by anchoring cursor and camera timestamps to the video's real capture start.
• Synchronized Recording Start — screen capture now waits for the camera, microphone, and system audio to be ready before recording begins, ensuring every track starts together.
• Faster Recording Startup — camera, microphone, and system-audio devices are now acquired ahead of time when opening the camera preview or starting the countdown, reducing the delay after clicking Start Recording.

Editor Improvements

• Aligned Timeline Tracks — Clips and Camera tracks now start and end at the same points by default when opening a fresh recording, preventing unexpected offsets or camera footage extending beyond the main clip.

Smarter Click Tracking

• No More App Clicks in Recordings — clicks on the Recording Dock, main Doculigent window, and Camera Bubble are no longer captured as recording clicks, preventing unwanted click ripples and sounds in exported videos.
• Multi-Monitor Click Filtering — display and area recordings now ignore clicks that happen on monitors outside the recorded screen.

Fixes

• Fixed cursor overlay timing drifting ahead of the recorded screen during playback and export.
• Fixed camera, microphone, and system audio tracks occasionally starting out of sync with screen capture.
• Fixed Camera track offsets and duration mismatches in newly opened recordings.
• Fixed Doculigent UI interactions appearing as click effects in recordings.
• Fixed clicks from other monitors being incorrectly registered during display and area recordings.

Thank you for using Doculigent! Your feedback and feature requests continue to shape the future of the app.

New Features

Timeline Editor Overhaul

• A more powerful timeline — Clips, Camera, and Zoom now work as three synchronized tracks with shared selection, multi-select, marquee selection, and group movement.
• Auto-Zoom on Recordings — new projects automatically generate a Zoom track from actual click activity.
• Zoom Presets & Controls — quickly apply zoom levels from the toolbar or remove zoom blocks with Delete/Backspace, with 150% as the new default.
• Reset Editing — reset all edits back to defaults or restore the completely untouched original recording.
• Polished Defaults — improved camera sizing, cursor styling and click effects, textured backgrounds, rounded corners, and a split landscape layout with the camera docked to the right.

Export Engine Rebuild

• Streaming Export Pipeline — recordings are now rendered and streamed directly into a long-running FFmpeg process instead of building an intermediate video in the browser, improving reliability and preventing dropped frames under load.
• Hardware-Accelerated Export — WebCodecs now handles H.264 encoding directly in the renderer, while FFmpeg focuses on final muxing. The new pipeline is significantly faster than the previous per-frame JPEG workflow, with automatic fallback for systems without hardware encoding support.
• Reliable Long-Recording Audio — audio is rendered deterministically in a dedicated offline pass, preventing missing audio at the end of longer recordings.
• Smarter Scaling — redundant scaling is skipped when unnecessary, with a more efficient scaling method when resizing is required.

Recording Quality

• Sharper Screen Recordings — exports now use an explicit quality baseline with CRF 18 and H.264 High Profile, plus hardware encoding support across NVENC, QSV, and AMF.
• H.264/MP4 Capture — recording now prefers MP4/H.264 and automatically falls back to VP9/VP8 WebM when required.
• Improved Audio Handling — audio-only side clips are now stored as PCM WAV for more reliable processing.
• Export Telemetry — measured encoding time and output bitrate are now reported for each export.

Library & Projects

• Cleaner Project Deletion — deleting a recording from the Library now also cleans up its associated Edit Project, including releasing media locks so files can be removed reliably on Windows.

Fixes

• Fixed Recording Dock flickering when opening popovers and improved click-through behavior.
• Fixed clipped rounded corners and stale dock window dimensions.
• Fixed zoom pan behavior in the preview compositor and timeline.
• Fixed choppy camera playback at the end of exported recordings.
• Fixed deleted timeline segments reappearing unexpectedly.

Security & Build

• Modernized the stack — upgraded Electron 32 → 43, electron-builder 24 → 26, electron-vite 2 → 5, Vite 5 → 7, React Router 6 → 7, and updated the React Vite plugin.
• Resolved npm audit findings and removed the uuid dependency.
• Added NSAudioCaptureUsageDescription support for macOS 14.2+ system-audio loopback capture.

Performance

macOS Recording Speed

• Faster macOS recording saves — Quick Recording now avoids an unnecessary re-encode, while Advanced Recording uses Apple's hardware-accelerated VideoToolbox encoding for significantly faster post-recording processing.

Thank you for using Doculigent! Your feedback and feature requests continue to shape the future of the app.

New Features

Advanced Recording & Native Capture

• Advanced Recording Mode — introduced Quick and Advanced recording flows, with Advanced preserving screen, camera, and cursor tracks as fully editable Edit Projects instead of flattening them into a single video.

• Smarter Recording Experience — improved notifications with stacking, hover-to-pause, actionable navigation, storage setup guidance, and live processing progress.

• Library & Sharing Improvements — recordings now open directly in the Library after saving, while Quick Recording can move directly into sharing once storage is configured.
