Screen grag media player

[brisk]

is it posable to take snapshots of the now playing
media player object
and have them auto save to desktop

from a single button press.....?

just like you can with vlc media player
and media player classic

just wondering.....

maybe with the capture region dll made by RizlaUK (d-net)

Capture Region DLL (Free) (http://indigorose.com/forums/showthread.php?t=22880&highlight=capture+region)

[RizlaUK]

there is another dll that i made at user request that allows you to capture part of the screen from x1,x2,y1,y2 coords, but i can not find it


EDIT: Ah, there it was hiding in another thread

EDIT: Aftertought

to be honest i dont know if this will work (you ever tried taking a screen shot of mediaplayer while playing a vid) you just get a black box, the same thing MIGHT happen here, but MIGHT not, give it a whirl

[brisk]

been looking in to this and
a few people have said if you
disable Hardware Acceleration in media player
then you will be able to take snapshots ok

is this possable to do with apms
some code on the onshow

i dont know just a thought.........

disable Hardware Acceleration Don't... 0,0'

no, you must disable overlays
not hardware acceleration

I think FRAPS can take screenshots of video, or maybe even SnagIt by TechSmith.

Also, if you use VLC, it has a built in function for screenshots.

Ah, it's always a nice addition to the information regarding this subject, isn't it? :)
I support replying to old posts, only if it adds valuable information.

I agree. For users (like myself) who search the forums for answers to their questions, there is nothing more frustrating than finding a thread with your topic issue only to discover that there is no solution to the problem. I'm all for solving the problem no matter how long it takes.
