Hi, do you use multiple screen? This might related to this open issue: bencevans/screenshot-desktop#171

A possible fix may be to use only one screen, not tested yet.

[etec-masterofsynapse]

I only have one display connected via HDMI to my Mac Mini.

That’s “external” actually, this guy has a mac mini too bencevans/screenshot-desktop#171 (comment). I can’t help with this case for now though.

[etec-masterofsynapse]

Well, the Mac mini can't have an internal display since it's a closed box.
However it seems that this error also occurs when you use your app with any kind of remote control software, like VNC or AnyDesk. I tried it without and got to the needed 630 pages, and no error.
