Screen Recording freezing on MacOS

[niraj-khatiwada]

Description

Recently, all of my screen recordings have been freezing(both in the editor and exported file). In earlier versions, it used to freeze in the editor only but not in the exported file. This happens for even shorter recordings as short as 10s.

Reproduction

I just started recording a simple 10s recording on studio mode. Happens for every recording in this version.

Additional Context

• Cap version: 0.3.83
• Operating system, version: MacOS Sequoia 15.5
• Device (optional): Macbook Pro M4 Pro 48GB RAM
