Screenshot from a video

Post by zapx » Fri Jan 24, 2020 5:27 pm

hi guys,

I need to make an app to get a screenshot from a media player, when I paused it. But I have only the black image of the controller.

I use this command;
export snapshot from player "player" to image "view"

thanks for reading, regards

Hi zapx,

it will work with the correct term! :D

Code: Select all

...
## export screenshot from player "player" to image "view"
export SNAPSHOT from player "player" to image "view"
...
Best

Klaus

Thanks for your reply, but I'm a very noobs :( . I wrong to write the message... In my test section I used the keyword snapshot...
Today I tested with other pc, but I have always the picture of the object, with his controller bar, but without the frame picture.
I have also installed the most recent codec pack

Hm, works here on my Mac.
I see you are on Windows, maybe that makes a difference?
