Screensharing fullscreen applications results in a frozen stream

Reproduction steps

Have a fullscreen application open (ex. Minecraft Java 26.3, Geometry Dash)
Stream the fullscreen application in Fluxer
Observe that the stream is just a frozen frame

Minecraft Settings:

Minecraft Java 26.3, all default Minecraft settings except: Set "Fullscreen" to ON, set "Exclusive Fullscreen" to ON

Use the "Fullscreen" option

Expected behaviour

Can stream fullscreen applications without the stream freezing

Actual behaviour

Streaming fullscreen applications will just stream a frozen frame. Audio still works, it does not matter whether the application is focused or not
