 Recording "desktop" does work normally. And you're right the title does
 change so i tested out "hwnd" and fixed the -framerate to be -r, while it
 did not record the full screen, this time it just ended up recording a
 still frame of the application. I could see the mouse cursor moving around
 the still frame but nothing else was changing.
