3 years ago Just FYI, this sounds like a setup issue for your FP system settings, but I'm afraid I can't help you much because I don't use FP. You might try asking on vpforums to see if someone there has the right settings. If not, the first thing I'd try is sending a mouse click during the startup sequence - see the System Options help section, and look for the [click playfield] part. You might need to experiment with delay timing there. Then you should try the different Terminate options to see if you can get it to close. If it closes during normal launches for play, it should also close during capture launches with the same settings; if not, you should see if PinballY thinks the capture hasn't ended yet. Turn on all of the log file settings related to capture and launch, and look carefully through the log file to see if there are any clues there.

When Capturing Images and Videos from Future Pinball in "Fullscreen mode" PinballY gets confused after FP starts up and pushes pinballY to he background. Pinball Y captures its own loading screen instead of the FP fullscreen. this makes batch capture for Future Pinball also impossible, unless babysat, as Pinball Y also does not seem to close Future pinball in-between batch captures correctly (unless I have something configured wrong?)
To Repro: launch PinballY with future pinball tables, set to fullscreen mode. when you capture images / video it will pop up the white and blue window, but then that gets buried.
Expected Behavior : It should be able to shuffle the windows properly to capture the screens.
Windows version 10Pro Intel graphics
WORKAROUND : once Future pinball Loads up the table and runs its "walk-up" animation you can press alt-tab to swap windows and pop the PinballY capture timer screen back on top of the fullscreen future pinball window and it will capture just fine.
Hope this helps!
