Takes A Screen Capture Of Monitor?

Mar 18, 2009

I have some code that takes a screen capture of my monitor. This code seems to work perfectly OK and can take multiple screen captures, apart from when I do a Print Screen using the keyboard or open SnagIT 8, when I then try to run my code again I get an error "A generic error occured in GDI+"

I am at a bit of a loss, I have had a look on the internet, but everything I seem to find appears to be related to web apps. and access permissions. This is a window based application and therefore can not seem to find an answer.Below is the code I am running:

Make A Screen Recorder (not Screen Capture) Program

Aug 20, 2010

I wanted to make a screen recorder (not screen capture) program, but I am not entirely sure how to get it started. I have seen many videos and things on how to make one, but all of these just take multiple pictures and then don't compile them into a movie file, and I don't want to take many pictures (unless that is the only way possible.) I am using Visual Basic 2010 Express and I have looked at the Windows Media Encoder, but I can't seem to figure out how to use/implement it (yes, I have downloaded and installed it.) Maybe I can use some kind of ActiveX control?

Add The Mouse When Capturing The Screen Or Monitor?

Jul 18, 2012

I'm just wondering if it's possible to add the mouse when capturing the screen or monitor in vb.net?

because I'm doing a project that would record the screen and I'm actually successfull doing that by capturing the screen and include it in a timer, but my only problem is the mouse or the cursor isn't showing.

below is my sample code.
Dim ScreenSize As Size = New Size(TotalScreenWitdh, MonitorHeightArray(0))
Dim BMP As New Bitmap(TotalScreenWitdh, MonitorHeightArray(0))

Form Objects Resizing On Different Monitor Screen Size?

Nov 29, 2011

I designed a form which contains about 50 objects all kinds including tableadapters,buttions,grids, tabs. What is the best way to optimize the loading with less time consuming. I cannot split objects in on different form as all the objects has to appear on screen as a requirement.

But my primary question here is, i designed this form with all these objects on a 15" monitor which fitted 100% on the screen. Now i am using 17" monitor when i open this form on run time, all the objects are appearing as designed but theres a 30% form area which is left blank. How can i make the form objects resize automatically on run time itself to fit on different size of monitor with no area left blank.

Monitor An Area Of The Screen For A Certain Color In Visual Basic?

Apr 5, 2012

I'm designing a player application to accompany our phone system. As our calltakers take calls, it makes recordings of each call. They can go to a list module, find a recording and double click, which opens my player. The issue i have is that if the calltaker gets another call, my player doesn't know it and will continue playing. I'm looking for a way to monitor the screen in a particular area and when it sees yellow or red instead of blue, it will pause my player.

The phone system does not have any API's that I can hook onto, so I have to try it another way.

The screen resolution never changes and the queue buttons where they receive calls will always be static. When they get a call, a small area changes from the background color blue to yellow or red to indicate a call.

**EDIT Final Code based on answers below and question Memory Leak using GetPixel/GetDC in Visual Basic

Private Function CheckforCall()
Dim hDC As IntPtr = GetDC(0)

Monitor Information - Rotate Screen When Message Detected

Dec 15, 2010

I got this monitor that can turn 90 degrees & another program will rotate the display when it detects it has been rotated, I have a few questions though.

1.How can I detect when the monitor has been rotated (the monitor is hooked up via vga & no other cable goes to PC so I am guessing the message is sent across the vga cable).
2.How can I make it actually rotate the screen when the message is detected that the screen has been rotated?

I would download the other software but it's just some bulky & slow software for a small thing, windows has the ability for rotation built in, just not the auto rotation feature like the program, I just need to detect the message & make windows rotate the screen.

Capture The PC Screen

Oct 13, 2010

When I first saw Silverlight, I thought that there was a How Do I: video that demonstrated how to capture the PC screen and save it in a WMV file. Since I can't find anything like that I'm wondering if I was dreaming or it has been removed from the Net. My goal is to create a video capture Class that I can use to demonstrate my program and add the feature in my program so the user can record any issues they are having with my program and send it to me. This way I can see what issues they are having with my program.

Screen Capture Every 30 Seconds For 45 Minutes

Jan 20, 2010

I'm trying to develop a windows form app which will take a screen shot every 30 seconds for about 45 minutes. After 45 minutes, the user will click Finish, and these screenshots will be uploaded to a database. I don't want anything that simulates a PrintScreen key press, because I don't want to alter the users clipboard. The second issue is, for users with multiple screens, I'd like to capture the entire screen image, not just from the primary screen. I'm using Visual Basic .NET 2005.

I'm working on a project. I've gotten all the kinks out of my Client/Server tcp chat. But I need to find a way around this problem.

In my chat room, you can have other users view your desktop remotely. But I'm having a problem with this.Does anyone know how I would get a screenshot or possibly video of the desktop and write it to my stream? I can convert it to a string already. and my old method used screenshots written to the disk. I would like to avoid touching the hard drive if possible, so that means extracting the screenshot/video from memory.

I am creating an application for a company and this CD will be distributed to hundreds of people. Many users will have different computer screen size and different screen settings such as their resolution set to 1024 x 728 and their monitor size 17" inches.

I notice that lot of other programs from microsoft resize their controls and text but never knew how they did it. How can I resize the form and control according to the user's setting.
