Please take a TCPMP screenshot for me!

Would someone please post a nice screenshot of TCPMP playing something that shows off its capabilities? Your reward would be a feature in my revised tutorial.

Thanks!

Of course this would be a day that I don't have any movies on my CF card.

I can post some this evening once I get home. I have a shot out of Swordfish that would be good. Oh well, maybe you will get a good one by then and if not, I will post it.

Thanks, kilthro...greatly appreciated...

I took some here... http://www.cabfiles.net/stuff/bpcaps/
Only movie I had on me :-)
Quality is 700k/s @ VGA.... For some reason it didm't want to capture full screen properly - it kept including the control bar things...
Meh..

Hehehe I really enjoy that movie.

I would have had some band of brother episodes on me but I needed to transport some large files to work and needed the room. That 1 gig card fills up quick. Can't wait for the 4 gig to come in the mail.

Thanks, transcout! I just love Shrek; they're perfect.

Np :-)
Does it look better or worse than anyone else's 400mb movies? I'm trying to work out if it's worth ripping from HDTV or not...

Erm, I'm not really sure how it looks in comparison to others since I have nothing to compare it to. I don't do a lot of movie conversions myself which is why I made this request in the first place.

It looks nice to me. However it is a still image of a video and that can work for it or against it. I would have to view a small clip of it and see if it is better myself.

I am trying to get you a good screen shot if you still want it. I am running into a problem though. Whenever I have tcpmp launched any screen capture program that I use will only show black where the movie image should be. I could have sworn I had some screen captures work in the past. I don't know what I have done since then that would cause it not to work. I do have the enhanced gapi driver installed and I have tried it with it on and off. Other than that, I am puzzled to what would be causing me to see the video on my axim but no screen capture program will. Its kinda like copy protection. I have tried the screen capture program that comes with resco photo viewer, SOTI's pocket controller 5.03 Pro, get pda screen and no luck. I am in true vga. This hasn't affected these programs before and they will capture my today screen or anything else except for TCPMP's movie area still image or playing. Any suggestions would be great.

Thanks kilthro, if it's too much hassle, don't worry about it. The screenshot from transcount is fine. Are you able to capture any screenshots of games with the GAPI tweak? I could use some of those instead. Thanks.

kilthro · 08-20-05, 09:11 PM

Which games in particular? I have some. Does it matter which ones? If there are some that you are looking for specifically let me know and I can see what I can do.

kilthro · 08-20-05, 09:13 PM

I really like the pocket controller. It allows me to make videos of what I do on my axim as well.

I know for a review you only need still images but just incase, I could make some videos (small clips) for you.

Gigi · 08-20-05, 10:02 PM

Actually any game that shows off VGA/Gapi would be great. Thanks!

I do all mine at 450~475 and think they turn out great. That way I can get 2 to fit on a Gig SD Card as well.
