Image save only includes lower left quadrant, Mac retina display

Saving images during movie recording sometimes only includes the lower left quadrant of what is shown on the screen in the image.

Ok, so reopened the files, didn’t use the button, ran

movie record supersample 3 format jpeg directory ~/integrated_cell_mitosis/movie_images; vseries play #1 normalize true

And frame 0 was showing lower left,
Frames 1 - 177 were right (looked exactly like what I see in the viewport)
And the rest were showing only the lower left again

I didn’t really touch anything while it was running
-m

Specifying the size of image in movie command does fix it.

This was a macOS graphics driver issue. I have not seen it reported in the past year so I suspect Apple has fixed the problem.
