Black screen with top left icon

I have a weird issue that I did not have with Love 0.9.
If I run my app and do nothing, my screen turn black with this symbol on the top left:

It sounds like a screensaver or something :)
It happens even with a minimalistic code like this:

Code: Select all

function love.load()

end

function love.update(dt)

end

function love.draw()

end
Do you know what it is and how to avoid this?

What GPU and graphics driver do you have? That icon is not added by love's code or any libraries it uses.

It's a Radeon. I found another topic regarding this. see my other reply for today. There is an error displayed on the console when the issue occurs. Love 0.9 has the same issue (the icon) but the screen remains displayed and do not turn black.

I'm wondering... The icon sounds like an integrated feature in the AMD drivers, to allows gameplay recording. I will try to disable this feature!

Technically, the window should be black if you have an empty project like that, that's normal.
On the other hand, gameplay recording is neat, so this just means löve 0.10 allows you to record, unlike 0.9 did, from what i understood from your post.

I tested with a non black project :) and the issue is visible on the "demo" screen, when you just launch love.exe.
For now I switched on my Mac, I'll try to investigate on the AMD Gaming Evolved recording client.
