Wishing a recording icon

[account-bug]

Hi.
I am missing a feature that informs me if a fullscreen capture is started, paused, resumed or stopped.
I think of something like an overlay icon in the upper right of the screen that shows the status of recording when an live-stream is recorded fullscreen (icon should not appear in the result).

Why? Sometimes I use pause/resume that often I am not sure if the recording is paused or not and I record the unwanted parts...

Thank you so much!

I am using vokoscreenNG on linux mint 21.3

Corresponding icons exist and are displayed in the system tray (systray) of the control bar.

If these icons cannot be displayed in the systray due to the system, an icon with the status appears on the screen as an alternative.

If nothing similar appears on the screen, please create a detailed bug report.

Thank you for your quick response.
Please try a youtube or twitch stream in fullscreen on linux/firefox. When the stream window in firefox is not fullsize the corresponding icon is visible in the panel.
But when the stream window of Firefox is set to fullsize the control panel will hide and I cannot see any corresponding icons onscreen anywhere. No idea if it is a bug.

Ok, I understand what you mean.
And no, that doesn't work.
A very, very cumbersome solution would be to record a window when it is running in full size. But I forgo the explanation because the explanation will only lead to thousands of questions and the video will be damaged if not handled fairly.
The only practical solution for you would be a second monitor on which the GUI with the status is displayed.
