I remember this pheonomena back from when I was doing DirectX/DirectShow development. That black rectangle where you had a video playing is a special region of the screen that allows YUV data to pass through the video buffer. In other words, they make all the RGB pixels 0,0,0 and overlay a YUV video through that black "hole". So there's nothing you can capture there. ~ Michael
Hello, I wondered if this is possible with pygame - I would like to take screenshot of my desktop. It means, my pygame app should run in background and be able to take whole screenshot of any application/whole desktop (not just itself), even in fullscreen mode (of in opengl, directx, direct3d, sdl mode). Because I tried to achieve this with python GTK but app for example when I took screenshot of my desktop and some video player with direct3d were running, I got black rectangle in that screen position. Is there any sample code for this please? Many thanks |
