x11grab Capture area outside the screen size

[mark]

Summary of the bug:
I used ffmpeg for Linux screen capturing and had it working until I upgraded to ffmpeg 2.6.3 (it works with 2.6.2 and previous versions).
I record the screen in 1920x1080 resolution from (0,0) but ffmpeg 2.6.3 creates the error that 1920x1080 from 0,0 is outside the size of 1920x1080 (which obviously is not true).

How to reproduce:
