[I moved this thread to here](https://screentogif.codeplex.com/discussions/579057), so we can swap files.
Contour, you can upload the recording the the Orange color as transparent. I did one with 500 frames and nothing went wrong. *(See attached files)*
About the IBeam (text cursor) ghosting, I know what's happening:
This is the frame 21, after detecting the unchanged pixels, painting it with the selected transparent color and of course, after croping:
This is the local color table of this frame:
As you can see, in a white background, there is no white color available, so the problem is with the algorithm that creates the color table. Here the thing gets tricky... I'll have a look.
By the way, I did a 500 frames recording with orange and nothing bad happened:
Comments: I'd like to add one comment about the cursor capturing: The first few times I used your program (v1.40), it captured my custom green cursor just fine. But v1.41 seems to ignore my green cursor and substitute the text I-beam. I just wanted to clarify this. I might be worth having an option for "Ignore I-beam Cursor" because I can see many cases where typed entries would be better-viewed without the cursor marching along and flickering at a different rate than normal (due to the frames/second setting). Again, just a thought.
