To stop recording send SIGINT to gpu screen recorder. You can do this by running `pkill -SIGINT -f gpu-screen-recorder` or pressing `Ctrl-C` in the terminal that runs gpu screen recorder. When recording a regular non-replay video this will also save the video.\ To stop recording send SIGINT to gpu screen recorder.
