[Feature Request] Only Game mode

Action is trying to record most windows on desktop.

Can we get a game only option? I dont want Action to hook into every application I open.

If I have time shift enabled, it creates a folder in the video recordings for every application it hooks into.

Using a Laptop.

Yeah, a game-only capture mode would make things much cleaner — the constant app hooking is pretty annoying.

Action really needs a true “game-only” mode—hooking every window and creating folders is super annoying, especially with Time-Shift on.

Yeah, that can be annoying. Action! tends to hook into many apps when desktop recording is enabled. You might want to switch to Game recording mode instead of desktop mode in the settings. That way it focuses only on detected games and won’t create folders for every application you open.
