Hi. Yesterday (after upgrading to macos Catalina) i recorder the screen using quicktime. The rec was about 1h, after that i pressed the stop button on the upper menubar.
Nothing was saved and i was unable to find the video on macos.
I did the same thing today. About 3 h trying lost.
I fear there a serious bug on the new quicktime screen recording feature.
Anyone else?
iMac Pro
Yes, happening to me too!
I have record a 20 minutes video but it record only 5 minutes.
Happened since I upgraded to Catalina
O God, really? Thanks but I know how to set up a destination folder.
the problem is that recorder video doesn’t appear or it’s cut since the original one.
the bug fires
with iMac Pro and Catalina. Do u have an iMac Pro?
I get in contact with Apple care. I was able to riproduce the bug and they submitted to Apple engineers. They confirmed the bug and they are working on a fix.
just to talk: is this happening with an iMac Pro?
I have the same problem on both an iMac Pro and also a Mac Mini since upgrading to Catalina.
It is an intermittent problem. It sometimes works correctly, sometimes truncates the recording and sometimes does not offer to save when the Stop button is pressed.
Is there an ETA on when a fix from Apple will be available?
Here is the log info. Hopefully this is helpful.

I can't use record screen at all! When I launch QuickTime, first the audio cuts out (and I've checked the settings and it's using the internal MacBook microphone and my speakers are set to MacBook internal speakers). Secondly, the recording timer appears in the touch bar for about 2 seconds, then disappears. Nothing is recorded and I have to relaunch the application I want to record to get the sound back.
I'm also having problems with streaming videos just stopping. Only way to get them to work again is reboot the MacBook. I watch A LOT of streaming content. It's getting very annoying! Don't know if the two things are related or not.
I have a MacBook Pro 15-inch, 2018 running Catalina 10.15.2. QuickTime was also updated to QT for Catalina.
Yes, this is a known issue. Very problematic. I have been working with apple engineering team for almost two months with no significant progress. We tried everything before submitting a disk image to engineering.
up. I noticed this happening on my iMac Pro
Works fine for me. Check "Options" in the QuickTime Player Taskbar to see where it's saving to.

Mac Mini (Late 2014) 2.6 Ghz Dual-Core Intel i5
macOS Catalina 10.15.2
Quicktime 10.5 (1015.2.1)
It just happened to me this morning with the Mac / versions listed above.
I'm on a macbook pro. same thing is happening to me. No sound. no sound. no sound. this is such a stupid thing to happen. fix the **** thing.
Look in System Preferences > iCloud > iCloud Drive, click on Options and if there is a checkmark next to QT remove it.
