GitHub Issue
Screenshots and other feedback
Hello, here are the results after testing a bit the latest v1.11.1
- Screenshots : they include the popup Save As (to the folder/location) window, which is undesired for a screenshot
- Screenshots : i would suggest the option of having a persistent custom directory set in directory and a toggle/boolean always save screenshots to this location, if On will save to that location, if off will ask the user to save at certain location. It is somewhat uncomfortable to choose a save loaction while gaming
- (not sure if this is intended) Windows screenshots (Win + PrtScr) doesn't capture the NR effect, tested with SDR/HDR and OBS fix on/off
Other feedback notes:
- App window cannot be dragged from assigned Monitor to another
- Tested on second HDR TV : with 'HDR' setting on it works perfectly, with 'HDR' off the screen keeps flickering randomly.
- FPS : i am still not sure why i see such big spikes in fps, maybe it's just reading incorrectly since in one of the builds i saw a note about not calculating on static frames or something similar.

Thank you for the quick fix and the clarification
- Fixed : Screenshot has the correct frozen frame
- Not Fixed : HDR-off TV flicker. From my testing, it seems that the flicker is not based of NR being on, but the app itself. I turned NR off and the flicker persisted until i close the app. The flicker appears upon switching the display (monitor) in settings to the HDR display (monitor), and disappears if HDR option is turned on or if the program is closed, i tested with other options (Boost and 4.5 FG without any effect).
Here is the log, in case it is of any help

The new log confirms the same v1.12 behavior: 1,991 FP16/BGRA8 switches. v1.13 applies the stronger SDR DuplicateOutput/BGRA8 path; local real-GPU DDA smoke had no format rebuild. The screenshot fix is already confirmed, and v1.13 also adds persistent output folders and separate processing/output/skipped-frame metrics. Keeping this open for an HDR-off TV retest.

v1.13.0 is out: [NeuralScreen v1.13.0](https://github.com/perseval-BLR/NeuralScreen/releases/tag/v1.13.0).
Two things from your report are fixed there:
- **Save As in the screenshot:** the processed frame is frozen before the dialog opens, so the dialog cannot appear in the saved image.
- **SDR flicker on the HDR TV:** SDR capture now goes through the original `DuplicateOutput` converted to a stable BGRA8 (your log showed 1,991 FP16/BGRA8 switches); `DuplicateOutput1` is reserved for HDR. Local smoke on the SDR path: 12 frames, no format-bridge rebuilds.
Please retest on **v1.13.0** and send a fresh log if the flicker or the brightness anomaly remains - HDR brightness across GPUs is the part that is still yours to confirm, not something I can reproduce locally.

tested on **v1.13.1**
**[Completed]**
- 'Save as' and auto save work nicely
**[Bugs]**
- Switching from HDR display to SDR resulted in endless load screen (HDR option was still on).
- The App popup/menu (in settings) is flickering (whole window, normal - full black window) after pressing Select screenshot folder, and moving the cursor while the choose folder dialog is on. Happened on SDR display with hdr off option, no such bug on HDR display with hdr option on.
- Flickering persists, i have attached a video aswell
- Auto menu off on 'NR On' is nice but if possible to have this as an option (sometimes you want to customize the effect). Also, on the TV (with settings hdr on), after NR On > popup dissapeared > Menu toggle (num2) moved cursor to a position at center up on screen (no menu) > toggled several times with the same bug. The menu appeared as it should once i turned off the NR (num1).
- Some screenshots resulted in black screen with just the app menu in view (attached bellow), ...

SaaS Metrics
Fixed in this release:
- The processed frame is now frozen **before** the screenshot **Save As** dialog opens, so the dialog should no longer appear in the saved image.
- The HDR-off TV flicker in your log was the same DXGI format 10 (FP16) / 87 (BGRA8) capture loop reported in #86. SDR capture now requests a stable BGRA8 format through `DuplicateOutput1`.
Clarification: fullscreen NeuralScreen intentionally uses `WDA_EXCLUDEFROMCAPTURE` to prevent recursive self-capture. Therefore Windows screenshots and ordinary OBS display capture do not include the NR layer. Use NeuralScreen's built-in screenshot, Spout2, or capture the one-window mode instead.
Still open / not implemented in v1.12:
- a persistent “always save screenshots” toggle and custom screenshot directory (the current folder only seeds the **Save As** dialog);
- dragging the fullscreen output betw...
