  • 1.  XPression Window Capture and Windows 11

    Posted 09-20-2025 11:15

    It seems that the XPression Window Capture does not work anymore within Windows 11? Hardware Acceleration is turned off in Chrome as well within the setting of Windows 11 (System/Displays/Graphics/Default Graphics Settings).

    Any thoughts of this?

    Try using Firefox instead of Chrome for the Windows Capture with Windows 11. Uncheck the option to "Use recommended performance settings" to get to the option to uncheck the "Use hardware acceleration" setting. Then restart Firefox and the drag-and-drop to capture should work.

    It is an issue with all Chromium browsers in Windows 11 (and perhaps a windows update from the last few months), affects software other than XPression (OBS), current workaround is to use Firefox, as Jeff suggests.

    My colleagues finally could test it this way, and indeed, working with Firefox and the suggested settings, did the trick. Thanks! I hope you keep us informed around this and when we safely can use any browser we want...

    Issue has been resolved in the current XPression beta branch (12.7 build 6208), and will be included in the next release of XPression, probably around the end of the year.

    From change log:

    [improved] window capture shader can now capture applications that use hardware acceleration
