@deontic are we talking about this option?

It seems to work ok for me? How does the countdown timer shows up with the option being off? Is it on the latest version?

Yes, I said when this option is disabled, the countdown timer shows up. This is the latest version. I said it appears only when you select a region on the screen manually:

Recorder:

Timer visible:

Timer option disabled:

How does the countdown timer shows up with the option being off?

Wondering the same)

@deontic I was asking about what exact message you see - the 2nd screenshot. From that I can see that this message is shown in case the recorded area intersects with the recording controls and it does inform that they will be hidden and provide you with the shortcut that does allow you to stop the recording.
The code condition to use the pre recording count down check if the option is on OR the recorded area intersects with the controls (so it's not limited to only the case when the area is selected).

If so, would it be better to modify the UI like this:

(But it feels a bit out of place on a page full of checkboxes... Any better designs?)
