There are two ways to capture screenshots from MiB64:
- The standard Windows Printscreen function (PRTSCRN or ALT+PRTSCRN, these
are keys on your keyboard!)
- The internal MiB64 screenshot function (System > Screen Capture,
shortcut F3)
What's the difference?
The Windows function copies the whole desktop (PRTSCRN) or the current window
(ALT+PRTSCRN) to the clipboard, you must then paste the data into a suitable
application such as Paint or Photoshop. The "clipboard"
as it's known can only (usually) hold one shot at a time, so if you take another
you overwrite the first. If you take shots while windowed, ALT+PRTSCRN will
include the MiB64 GUI.
Jabo D3D6 F3 function writes sequentially numbered Bitmap Image files (snap0000.bmp,
snap0001.bmp ... snap9999.bmp) and D3D8 F3 function writes sequentially numbered
JPEG Image files (ROM File Name snap0000.jpg,
ROM file name snap0001.jpg ... ROM file name snapsnap9999.jpg) into the
current
Screenshots folder. If you take shots while windowed, it will not
include the MiB64 GUI.
You can press the button as many
times as you like (given enough
storage space, up to 10,000
captures!) I
Icepir8's LLE has the options
via a drop down selection of
png,bmp & jpg.
F3
function writes sequentially
numbered Image files (ROM
Internal Name 0000.jpg, ROM
Internal Name 0001.jpg ... ROM
Internal Name 9999.jpg) into the
current
Screenshots folder. If you take shots while windowed, it will not
include the MiB64 GUI.You can
press the button as many times
as you like (given enough
storage space, up to 10,000
captures!) If you take shots in
fullscren, your shots will be of
your native desktop resolution
which depending on your settings
can be very large.
Points:
- There is no included way to capture a video clip or animation sequence
from MiB64. You could try an external capture utility such as is provided
by Microsoft.
- Bitmap and JPEG Image files written from the internal function will have the same colour depth
as MiB64 is currently running in.
- All screenshots from MiB64 or the MiB64 video plugin(s) published
should credit MiB64 and contain a link to the MiB64 website.
