25 minutes wasted: Recovery failed: No recoverable segments found #2105

Description

Description

Was in studio mode, recording screen and camera for 25 minutes before i received an error message. Opened the Cap Project, the audio and camera view was saved, but the screen recording which was the most important and redo-able is an mp4 that can't be opened by anything. I tried the automatic recovery and it said "No recoverable segments found" which is crazy because i was not talking the entire time.

Reproduction

Record for around 25 minutes I guess and it will fail

Additional Context

  • Cap version: Version 0.5.8 (0.5.8)
  • Operating system, version: Mac OS Tahoe 26.6 (25G72)
  • Device (optional): Apple M1 Max Mac Studio
