 Posted: Fri Feb 08, 2008 12:00 am Post subject: capture also screens with video running (WMV, AVI, etc) |
 |
|
Hello!
Nice piece of code!
Is it also possible to capture running wmv (avi and other video) files on the screen? Now I just get a transparent hole in my bmp.
Would be great, cause even ready made software (free) which can do that is very scarce!
Thanks! |

|
|
How do I use variables for the filename? I have tried | Code: | | CaptureScreen(aRect = 0, bCursor = False, sFile = A_Now . ".png" ) |
but it says | Quote: | ---------------------------
ScreenCapture.ahk
---------------------------
Error at line 26.
Line Text: CaptureScreen(aRect = 0, bCursor = False, sFile = A_Now . ".png" )
Error: Unsupported parameter default.
The program will exit.
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------
|
and | Code: | | CaptureScreen(aRect = 0, bCursor = False, sFile = "%A_Now%.png" ) |
but it saves the file as %A_Now%.png without the variable converted. What is wrong? |

Hi Sean, that's a great script. I've using it for a while to search what kind of cursor is active right now coz it can capture mouse cursor.
I've been thinking, do U thing it's possible to search is image in clipboard is the same with image I want 2 search. kinda like ImageSearch but not on screen, but search in the Clipboard.
because b4 i use to to save it Hd 1st & show it 2 GUI 2 search it using imagesearch. And I think it'll be more efficient 2 search in clipboard.
Can U tell me how? tx b4. |

I am trying to use Sean's syntax, and all I seem to get is the full screen (1920x1200) not sure what i am doing wrong here... even tried to comment out everything and just do the screen capture portion... same result. Running XPSP2... current AHK, just dled the screencapture.ahk
| Code: |
IfWinNotActive, EVE,
WinActivate, EVE,
WinWaitActive, EVE,
#Persistent
;#SingleInstance force
;SetKeyDelay, 11
;SetDefaultMouseSpeed, 11
#include ScreenCapture.ahk
;Process, Priority, MMine, H
;Process, Priority, MMine, A
;MsgBox, 4,, Would you like to continue? (press Yes or No)
;Gosub, Start
;Start:
Sleep, 2000
;KeyWait, LButton, D
;MouseGetPos, XPos, Ypos,
;X1:=XPos
;Y1:=YPos
;X2:=XPos+150
;Y2:=YPos+150
;Size=%X1%, %Y1%, %X2%, %Y2%
gosub, capscr
Return
Capscr:
sleep 1000
;CaptureScreen(Size, True, 0)
CaptureScreen("100,100,500,500", 0, 0)
return |

Your code will never run. If you'd like to use #include, remove from the head of ScreenCapture.ahk | Code: | CaptureScreen()
Return |
And your current code will save it to the clipboard. |

Sure it's possible. You can obtain, using GetClipboardData(), hbitmap (:DDB) or DIB. All necessary ones are ready by now. The remaining question is what procedure you're gonna use for the search, GetPixel through memory dc, where hbitmap is useful but maybe the slowest, or compare raw pixel, where DIB is handy, one by one, or may use hashes of the data. |

That's a whole lot different story. I don't think it's possible with the current AHK (alone) unless the DirectX surface is owned by AHK when the hardware acceleration is in effect. |

| I'm new to AHK, and I'm wondering if this script can be modified to work on a minimized window without restoring it. Also, how exactly do I make it capture only a certain portion of the screen if I have the coords. Thanks. |

Use PrintWindow API, but you'll capture the extent of a minimized window. |

I am trying to screen capture from a second monitor, but I am having problems. It works fine on the first monitor:
aTest := scan_x_start . ", " . scan_x_start . ", " . scan_y_end . ", " . scan_y_end
CaptureScreen(aTest) |

Does anybody know why this function doesn't work for me properly? 
I just simply tested it on my WinXP SP2
i can't handle it.
it only captures fullscreen, and saves to screen.bmp only whatever parameters were.
| Code: | #Include ScreenShot.ahk
;Below are from the example
CaptureScreen(0) ;Captures FullScreen and saves to screen.bmp
CaptureScreen(1) ;same
CaptureScreen(2) ;same
CaptureScreen("100, 100, 200, 200") ;same
CaptureScreen("100, 100, 200, 200, 400, 400") ;same
CaptureScreen(1, 0,"test.png") ;same
CaptureScreen(2, False,"test.jpg") ;same

The answer is a few post above.

Return |

Hello, thank you for this support group. Conversely, I have a simple question about this particular function, hopefully someone can take it seriously and see it for what it is. I have IP software I don't want people taking screenshots of.... this function seems to tap into windows dll calls to accomplish the task.
I am wondering, is there any anti-protection code I can implement, that would defeat this general function from working on my systems? Please let me know if anyone knows! 
Have the best day and thank you. |
