Description

I am having an issue where the render command doesn't begin and hangs without any input indefinitely.

However I discovered that if I enable the Electron app to be displayed (as mentioned in #11) and then manually click the "play" button then the render begins and the progress bar appears in the terminal. Then the render is successful.

Not sure what the problem is so raising this as a bug.

Thanks for a brilliant lib.

Research direction

Reproduce the render command with the Electron window hidden, then compare it with the #11 flow where the app is displayed and the Play button is clicked. Trace the render command's startup path and verify that rendering begins and the terminal progress bar appears without manual interaction.
