Description

It would be nice to have an IMGUI_VIDEO_CAPTURE_ENCODER_PATH definition included in imgui_capture_tool.h much like IMGUI_CAPTURE_DEFAULT_VIDEO_PARAMS[...]. In my world it would be conveniently sourced during ImGuiTestEngine_Postswap;

struct IMGUI_API ImGuiCaptureContext would contain char* VideoCaptureEncoderPath = IMGUI_VIDEO_CAPTURE_ENCODER_PATH or along those lines so we don't have to input it via the UI.

Thoughts?

Research direction

Start in imgui_capture_tool.h and inspect ImGuiCaptureContext, then trace how ImGuiTestEngine_Postswap currently handles video capture settings. Confirm how IMGUI_CAPTURE_DEFAULT_VIDEO_PARAMS is defined and where the encoder path is read from the UI. Done means the path can be supplied through the proposed definition or context field without manual UI entry, with the intended initialization behavior documented or tested.
