Screen freezes while recording. I'm recording a video from Safari 7.1 using Quick Time Player 10.3 in OS10.9.5. The picture freezes after about an hour and a quarter. I'm using SoundFlower to capture the audio; the audio continues to flow and record while the picture remains static.
MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Mid 2014), OS X Mavericks (10.9.5)
I'm having the same issue. I'm not using Soundflower to record audio. I'm recording video only. After a few minutes the video freezes. It shows fine on screen, but when I review the video after the recording is complete, it shows only a frozen image. I'm recording from Safari 8.0.8 using QuickTime Player 10.4 in OS X 10.5 on a MacBook Air 6.1.
I know this is an old thread but I just had the same problem so I thought I would post my solution.
The picture would show normally on my Mac’s screen but the recorded image would freeze after a time. You would think that the displayed image is the same as that is going to QuickTime Player but it is not. For some reason the setting Preferences/ Energy Saver/Display Sleep freezes the feed to QuickTime when the pre-set time limit is reached.
The solution is to either turn the Display on all the time or for long enough to cover the full recording time.
