Benoks/EShot v4.8.0 on GitHub

EShot v4.8.0

Fixed the capture overlay freezing over fullscreen games on KDE Plasma Wayland: EShot now takes focus when the overlay opens, so the game releases the mouse and keyboard. If input is still held elsewhere, a banner tells you how to cancel.
New "Capture screen now" hotkey (Settings → Hotkeys, off by default): saves the screen under the mouse right away, without the selection overlay. The most reliable way to take screenshots in games. Also available in the tray menu.
Pressing the capture hotkey again while the overlay is open now cancels it.
Pressing Print Screen twice quickly no longer starts two captures at once.
Windows: the desktop grab is checked for errors and uses Desktop Duplication over exclusive fullscreen games, instead of showing a black or garbled overlay.
Pinned images have the right size on mixed-DPI setups and resize from the dragged corner.
%T (window title) in file names is filled on Linux where possible, and dropped cleanly otherwise.
Lower memory use for captures on multi-monitor KDE setups.

A selected microphone that is unplugged no longer makes every recording fail; it is skipped with a warning and shown as "not connected".
Wayland: audio or source errors are no longer blamed on the hardware encoder; options the installed PipeWire/GStreamer does not support are left out instead of failing the recording.
Windows: if a hardware encoder fails, recording retries with Desktop Duplication and software encoding before falling back further; system audio follows a change of the default output device (headphones, Bluetooth).
Recordings interrupted on X11 keep their footage; Linux temporary files are hidden and cleaned up.
Stopping right after starting is treated as cancel, not as an error. Clearer messages for portal timeouts and missing components.

KDE: recording shortcuts are now really released when a recording ends.
Windows: holding a hotkey no longer repeats it.
Pressing Print Screen no longer discards an open Settings window: it is hidden during the capture and comes back with your changes. OCR and upload windows are kept.
An update never interrupts a recording: it waits until EShot is idle, and the download is verified again right before installing.
Autostart: on Linux any EShot autostart entry is recognised and updated; on Windows Task Manager's "disabled" state is respected and Settings opens without a delay.
Windows Security: if Controlled folder access blocks saving, EShot explains how to allow EShot and ffmpeg.exe and keeps the screenshot on the clipboard.
"Start as administrator" now warns about the security risk on per-user installs.
EShot --save PATH works while EShot is already running.

Light theme and high contrast are readable everywhere; disabled controls look disabled. High contrast also applies to the capture toolbar and panels.
The tray menu follows the theme, shows the shortcuts next to each action, and has "Open Screenshots Folder" and "Last Screenshot" entries.
The first-run screen starts in your system language and switches language immediately.
The GNOME control window (without tray) has Record GIF, Record Video and Open folder buttons.
Report a Problem in the tray menu, About window and GNOME control window opens a GitHub issue with your EShot version and system already filled in (no personal data).
Choosing Capture or Capture Window from the tray menu waits for the menu to close, so it is no longer in the screenshot. Even spacing in the GNOME control window.
Missing translations filled in; README shortcut and command-line tables updated.

The AppImage is now built with Qt 6.8 (same as Windows).
AUR: the package runs from an extracted copy in /opt/eshot — faster start, no FUSE needed.
KDE no longer tries to restore EShot from a removed temporary path at login, and startup no longer waits for the service cache rebuild.
GNOME: the fallback Print Screen shortcut forwards to the running EShot instantly; after installing the tray extension you are told to log in again.
Windows installer: closes EShot gracefully before updating, the Arm64 installer only installs on Arm64, and uninstalling removes downloaded components.

Windows x64, Windows ARM64 and Linux x86_64 packages are provided below.
