CapRT @ameerashhab97: Used @cap as an MCP for the first time - very busy lately with work and it did a great job with recording a product demo for me while I work on other things! This is the future.020136
Instant recordings in Cap now process up to 17x faster. Under 1 min: 10s → 3.5s 1-5 min: 32s → 5s 5-15 min: 72s → 7s 15+ min: 5 min → 18s We now run our own GPU farm, and Cap does most of the work while you're still recording 🫡76764.4K

CapRT @web3_theo: 3 for 3 on @cap PRs ✅ Faster video imports. A missing-frame bug fixed. Thumbnails up to 4.3x faster with byte-identical output. Every one shipped with benchmarks and tests. More coming, i'm gonna need a Sponsor @capWEB3Theo @web3_theoAnother PR merged into @cap , this is the third merge🥳 On Windows and Linux, Cap’s recording picker shrinks a screenshot of every screen into a thumbnail. On a 4K screen that took 124ms. Now it takes 29ms. Up to 4.3x faster, and the output is identical down to the byte.020128
CapRT @the_best_codes: @Cap is really amazing. It's open-source, which is cool. It also just WORKS, which is especially nice on Linux where so many of the alternatives I tried are trash.010114
