Recent crashes when recording GIF on Fedora 30

[orschiro]

Hi guys,

Not sure if this is Fedora 30 related but recently, Peek keeps crashing when recording GIFs.

1. I click STOP
2. It asks me where to save the file
3. For a moment, I see "Rendering" and then it crashes

Has anyone seen the same recently?

Thanks and regards

I have the same behaviour on Pop!_OS. Mp4 works fine.

I have the same issue on Ubuntu 19.04

In my case, crash occurs (after I stop recording, and hit on Save in Save File Dialog) if I am using gifski. Otherwise, peek renders the gif fine.
OS: Fedora 30
In case this matters, gifski was installed as a rust crate.

+1 on Ubuntu 19.04.

If it helps, running these lines for versions (no gifski):

gtk-launch --version
apt-cache policy libglib2.0-dev | egrep 'Installed|Candidate|glib2\.0'
apt-cache policy libkeybinder-3.0.0 | egrep 'Installed|Candidate|libkeybinder-3\.0\.0'
apt-cache policy gstreamer1.0-plugins-good | egrep 'Installed|Candidate|gstreamer'
ffmpeg -version

outputs

ok @here , this issue might be a possible duplicate of #434
at least for us on Ubuntus. You might benefit from their proposed patches/workarounds.

Which is possibly a duplicate of #419, which is closed by #449. Was the fix merged in distribution repos?

I'm having the same issue still in Fedora 30 Kernel 5.2.15-200. I dnf updated everything on Sep 20th 2019. I'm only using default fedora repositories. I tried Peek with both dnf install peek, and installing with Flatpack flatub method, but both crash after clicking stop while I'm on the save file menu.
