Summary: Recording desktop video isn't possible with
compositing disabled

OS: Linux

SUMMARY
Record desktop isn't possible with compositing disabled. Since enabled
compositing introdice heavy stuttering and visual glitches in some games, when
I record a gameplay video it's recommended to disable compositing if the game
doesn't turn off it by yourself via "Allow applications to block compositing"
option.
And here is the problem - when I disable compositing the recorded video is a
black screen or the first frame from the game, be it a splash screen, movie or
a company logo. I tried every singe record desktop software available and all
behave the same way - blank video with compositing disabled.
If I enable compositing the video is recorded fine but with graphical glitches
and stuttering. I'm forced to instal a LXDE DE to record videos which isn't ok
I think.
Excuse me if the isuue isn't in the right section but I really don't know where
to post it.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Disable compositing and try to record a game video.
2.
3.
OBSERVED RESULT
Blank video with sound but no image.
EXPECTED RESULT
Video with image.
