Library to take screenshots and record video from desktop

Project description

Screen Recorder SDK

Library to take screenshots and record videos

I use Desktop Duplication API to capture desktop and Media Foundation API to record video.

For screenshots it cuts process window from desktop while for videos it captures full display without cutting for better performance

DDA works stable only for Windows >= 10

Installation

First option is:

git clone https://github.com/Andrey1994/screen_recorder_sdk
cd screen_recorder_sdk
cd python
pip install .

ALso you can install it from PYPI:

pip install screen_recorder_sdk

Simple Sample

import sys
import time
import numpy

from screen_recorder_sdk import screen_recorder


def main ():
    screen_recorder.enable_dev_log ()
    pid = int (sys.argv[1])
    screen_recorder.init_resources (pid)

    screen_recorder.get_screenshot (5).save ('test_before.png')

    screen_recorder.start_video_recording ('video1.mp4', 30, 8000000, True)
    time.sleep (5)
    screen_recorder.get_screenshot (5).save ('test_during_video.png')
    time.sleep (5)
    screen_recorder.stop_video_recording ()

    screen_recorder.start_video_recording ('video2.mp4', 30, 8000000, True)
    time.sleep (5)
    screen_recorder.stop_video_recording ()

    screen_recorder.free_resources ()

if __name__ == "__main__":
