Multi-monitor setup timelapse is grouped by monitor instead of chronological order

[blib]

When using Dayflow with two monitors, the generated timelapse is grouped by monitor instead of by time. The output shows a sequence from the first monitor, and only after that a sequence from the second monitor. This breaks temporal context and makes it hard for LLM to understand what was happening on each screen at the same moment.

To Reproduce
Just use a system with two monitors in extended desktop mode.

Expected behavior
The timelapse should be ordered by time, not by monitor. Frames from multiple monitors captured at the same time should be interleaved (or combined) so it’s clear what was happening on each screen at any given moment.

and great program! Thank you!

Interesting - will look into this!

Hmm, took a look at the code - we are stitching in chronological order. Would it be possible to share a video of what you're seeing?

Sorry! This is not a chronological ordering bug. Dayflow captures only the currently active (focused) monitor. When focus switches between monitors, capture switches too. That explains why the timelapse looks like monitor 1 first, then monitor 2
