It seems distro was not recognized, but it's Fedora 42 Sericea (Atomic desktop like Silverblue, but with Sway). It's a wayland session, I have XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland environment variable configured.
On the board I have an Optimus configuration with Quadro P600 dedicated GPU and HDMI out and the internal UHD Graphics 630. The laptop is running in hybrid mode, but I only use the integrated graphics. I have the i915 and nouveau drivers loaded.
Currently there is an LG external monitor plugged in via HDMI cable.
Bug summary
Capturing selection does not seem to work on my setup. I click on Record, select the monitor, then the "Select Area" window appears with the text "Loading...", but it gets stuck there.
I believe this used to work for me before, but haven't used it for a while so not sure when it did break. The way it worked before was that I clicked Record, then selected the screen (clicking anywhere on the screen when the crosshair pointer showed up), then the "Select Area" would show my whole screen and I would need to select an area for recording inside that window. That used to work.
Note: I can still record the full screen, that works fine. I can select which monitor and it will record that monitor.
Steps to reproduce
- Open Kooha
- Select the "Selection" mode
- Click Record
- Click the screen with crosshair pointer
- "Select Area" window shows up with "Loading..." and gets stuck there
Expected behavior
The "Select Area" would display my screen and I am able to select a region for recording.
Relevant logs, screenshots, screencasts, etc.
