Thanks for this, but you might have to clarify for me. If I'm using a Steam Deck (and correct me if I'm wrong here), gaming mode doesn't use the Steam Client, right? Gaming mode is more an 'inbuilt feature' of SteamOS?

I was wondering if game recording would now be included, as it makes reference to it here:

Fixed a problem where a Game Recording capture failing could cause subsequent captures to also fail

The gaming mode is still the Steam Client. It's just the big picture client which has built in additional features when used on a Steam Deck.

The stable Steam Client is still a September build, even though the whole rest of the stable OS is dated to a few days ago.

The funny part is that you can hold down the … button, and see the new overlay which has the new recording shortcuts. They do not work.
