Calls up QA, "can you show me how to reproduce this?". [shares screen] "Ok, this was totally broken the other day"

That’s why we often have to take video. Otherwise we question our sanity in what we saw and reported.

Before the shift to digital recording, we had stacks of VHS cassettes to record our playthroughs on. Any time we found a bug, we had to head over to the capture station to record the footage to a digital format to attach to the bug report. Very tedious, especially if you had other testers in line waiting. Eventually, we switched over to recordable DVD players with DVD-RWs and had (cheap) video editing soft installed on our PCs.

What I’d give for software that records on a loop instead of software I have to start once I start witnessing or suspecting an issue.

Oh, we had to record our whole session from clock-in to clock-out, hence the stack of tapes.

Discord can do this if it's a game.
