Forgot to mention, I have a dual-monitor setup, which I've read may not be supported.
That doesn't explain #1 and #2 though, or why include this rudimentary feature at all, when there is much more powerful and easy-to-use software[1] that could be bundled, with a UI that lets the user select a portion of the screen to record (thereby solving #3).

When I press Shift+Ctrl+Alt+R, I see an orange dot in the upper-right corner, and a new .webm files in ~/Videos. Several problems: 1. There seems to be no actionable UI for this function. If I click the orange dot, I don't see any sort of menu, such as to pause or stop the recording. 2. The files is incorrectly named. The timestamp uses the DD-MM-YYYY HH:MM:SS format, but the HH is 05:26 when it's 5:26pm (it should be 17:26). 3. After I press Shift+Ctrl+Alt+R, the orange dot disappears, but the .webm file is empty. What am I doing wrong?
