HOW TO USE THIS ADDON:
There is a known bug in the Mac Client that causes recorded video to become corrupted if the client is launched with Shadow Quality set to anything above Low. This addon "fixes" this by setting Shadow Quality to Low upon logout, then changing it back upon login.
If your Shadow Quality is currently set to High or Ultra when you install this addon for the first time, you will need to QUIT WOW ENTIRELY and relaunch WoW. (If it isn't, you probably don't even need this.)
Use "/fixmacrecording" or "/fmr" to open up FMR's options dialog. You will see a Shadow Quality setting. The shadow quality set here will override whatever is set in Graphics Options, but not until next login.
Therefore, to fix your Mac client's recording feature, you will need to:
1) Install this addon.
2) Open WoW.
3) Type "/fmr" to bring up this addon's options window for shadow quality. Choose the shadow quality you wish to use.
4) Quit WoW. ("Exit Game", not "Logout")
5) Relaunch WoW.
When changing Shadow Quality, the settings do not affect the game immediately. Relogging (not reloading UI) is required for them to take effect. To change shadow quality for the current play session only, use the System Graphics options as normal.
While using this addon, when you visit the System Graphics option, your Shadow Quality may be set to "Custom"; this is normal.
