If you start recording with the button and hit the record button again, while recording, it kills the stop button. Thanks for that update. I can't reproduce it killing the stop button (I'm on Linux, so it could be platform dependent), but I do see that it deselects the record button, and that shoul...

whichever prior version I had Any idea which version that was? Was it a 2.x.x version? If you were using an earlier 2.x.x version, then most of the big changes are configurable so you can get the new version to look and act much like the older version if that is what you prefer.
