Gnome-Shell, Screencast from Games are flickering

Hi there,

I'm trying to record a small scene from a steam-game under Gnome-Shell. I'm using the easy-screencast-plugin. Sound and Video are getting recorded as deserved, but the Video is flickering highly. Is there a way to make this go away? VSync is enabled, also I've disabled the game overlay in the steam options, but without luck.

Try simplescreenrecorder.

Same result. I've tested to just record the desktop, without a game or something else running. The flickering occurs there, too. With both tools, so I guess the problem is somewhere else. What can I do to find out? I'm using the nvidia-drivers from the repos on an Geforce 760.

Whoa! Ok, now it is getting really weird: It can be that the flickering is not in the recordings. I'm not able to say, because ALL videos are flickering when I play them. Even older files that devinitly do not flicker at all.

Edit: There is no flicker when I play them with gnome-videos. Could it be that it has something to do with the two different gstreamer versions?
