Hi, can you provide any details on the crash. Is it recurring, does it happen after leaving the app open for a period of time?

[XbxStudiosGit]

Yes it's recurring. Every 30 seconds to 2 minutes.

A few more questions to help debug, since I'm not able to reproduce it on my machine:

• Does it matter if you have a shader enabled or not?
• Do you have a multi-monitor setup or anything like that?

I also pushed a new version 1.1.1 which fixes some multithreading synchronization issues. I don't think these would cause this problem, but let me know if updating happens to fix it.

This is happening also to me on the newest version of ScreenShader but the difference is that I'm on MacOS 26.1
