CapFrameX Capture and Analysis Tool 1.9.1.5

What's new in 1.9.1.5

CapFrameX 1.9.1 restores the experimental in-game overlay with signed binaries, brings back the bundled BENCHLAB service, and improves overlay compatibility, hardware information, and capture workflows. This is a stable release; the in-game renderer remains experimental.

Revised v1.9.1 packages (build 1.9.1.5)
The packages have been rebuilt to correct the missing Authenticode signature on LiveCharts.Wpf.dll reported in #451. All packaged Windows DLLs, including managed dependencies and satellite resources, now have valid Authenticode signatures. Installer custom-action dependencies are signed before embedding. Existing valid vendor signatures are preserved.

The release verification now rejects any unsigned or invalidly signed packaged binary. Package hashes in SHA256SUMS.txt have been updated; the VirusTotal link above refers to the original build. This addresses the unsigned-component cause of the Smart App Control report; verification on the reporter's SAC-enabled system is still pending.

Update using the revised installer, or extract the revised portable archive into a new folder and copy your previous Portable data folder and customized portable.json. Source for this packaging revision: v1.9.1.5.

Overlay and OSD

• Restored CapFrameX in-game (Experimental) for DirectX 11, DirectX 12, and Vulkan titles, including signed x64 and x86 hook and layer DLLs. If the in-game renderer cannot be used, the hook-free overlay takes over. Hook-free and RTSS renderers remain available.
• Automatic compatibility probing with per-game learned profiles, revalidated when conditions change, and recovery after frame-generation changes during a session, including FSR and XeSS routing. Some compatibility changes require restarting the game.
• Smoother in-game frametime charts, sharper antialiased lines, and corrected frame cadence under frame generation. The FPS graph now works without the frametime graph and can be toggled live.
• Improved column layout in the Overlay tab: OSD options arrange in three columns, wrapping to two in narrower windows, and the overlay item grid shows all columns without horizontal scrolling.
• Overlay toggles in the Overlay tab and status bar, per-entry text sizes, and an OSD log-folder shortcut.
• The hook-free overlay shows only while a capture process is detected, is placed on the selected monitor regardless of the taskbar, and averages its metrics at each refresh. …
