Software Update: ScreenToGif 2.22

Version 2.22 of ScreenToGif has been released. With this open source application, the actions on the screen or the images from the webcam can be recorded. The result can optionally be edited with the baked-in editor and then saved as an animated gif image or movie file. The program relies on .Net 4.8 and the download is therefore minimal. Also, it can be used without having to install it first. ScreenToGif is actively being developed and new versions appear regularly. The changelog for this release looks like this:

What’s new?

• It’s more apparent that a new update is available.
• Added an updater, which automatically downloads and installs new updates (optional), even for portable releases.
• You can now manage the presets of the encoding parameters of FFmpeg for Gif and Appg too.

Bug fixes:

• The DirectX capture method was crashing in some machines when trying to record with the cursor visible.
• The installer was crashing when the user had no .Net Framework 4.7.2 or newer.
• When inserting a new media into an existing project, the app was saving the state to the action stack twice, which caused a crash when trying to undo twice.
• When exporting as images, the app was not resolving the date/time format of the filename.
• The text of ‘Help’ button was missing.
