ROBERT-MCDOWELL commented 11 years ago

I tried SCR with win8 64bits but without success, also I can't see the same setting scripts like XP, don't where they are... is anyone has experienced with this issue ?

ROBERT-MCDOWELL commented 11 years ago

Ok I just tested all browsers last versions on a fresh install of windows 8 64bits and flash player 11.9.900.117 with a screen resolution of 1200x768 in table conditions and here are the results:

IE 10: the device screen-capture-recorder in flash player webcam list is not recognized FF 24: screen-capture-recorder is in the webcam list of flash player but no video Chrome 30.0.1.599: Working OK Seamonkey 2.21: screen-capture-recorder is in the webcam list of flash player but no video Opera 12.16: Working OK Safari 5.1.7: Working OK

thanks to comment these results

Wow that is really weird. So the device installed ok, seemingly...maybe try it with a lower resolution to see if it starts showing up? unfortunately I don't have win 8, though I have seen it not appear in the dropdown list in other windows' before, just never investigated it thoroughly...

tried 640x480, same results. I suspect this issue related with 64bits or not in a 64 bits environment. I'm trying to figure it out. id you'd like a pc with win8 ask me, I can try to find one for you

ROBERT-MCDOWELL commented 11 years ago

weirdly I just realized that java installed a 32bits version on my win8 64. is it normal ?

rdp commented 11 years ago

java shouldn't matter. I did a quick glance to see if it was registering ok in win64 and it is hmm...

Hello,

I have similar issues on win7 64bit. It is working on Chrome but not on Firefox

rdp commented 11 years ago

@galkar is that 64 bit or 32 bit ff?

rdp commented 11 years ago

ahh I was wondering what was going on there but hadn't investigated it further, I will look into it...(NB that I really don't know why flash would be rejecting it in 64 bits...anybody have any ideas out there?)

galkar commented 11 years ago

Hi, The dependency walker show it is 32 bit firefox verison but it shows all librares it loads are 64bit. I have tested on IE10 and chrome and it displays properly (some time crashes on exit) but FF show empty screen (black) Dnia 20 listopada 2013 14:23 Roger Pack <notifications@github.com> napisał(a): ahh I was wondering what was going on there but hadn't investigated it further, I will look into it...— Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub.

galkar, which system ?

galkar commented 11 years ago

Windows 7 professional 64bit

galkar commented 11 years ago

I have checked there are no debugging outputs from the filter when using FF. When using IE or chrome I can see all debug info. Thus it seems the FF is not even trying to load the filter. @rdp could you provide some information how to proceed with diagnosing the filter for FF ?

rdp commented 11 years ago

Mine does seem to "hang" when I choose screen-capture-recorder http://www.sillywebcam.com/others/?demo=test-your-webcam with FF but not chrome. It does list it though...

I did notice when attempting to attach to it that it says "flash_plugin.exe [low rights]" After applying this: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Flash#Disabling_Protected_Mode_in_Flash_11.3 Then I'm able to get it to work. Same for you? I'm not sure why the other browsers are ok with this. Maybe firefox will someday be able to run it not in protected mode, why would the others not be running it this way...hmm...

Thank you for your reply. After disabling protected mode it runs on FF and shows the desktop. The only problem is that on exit FF crashes in simillar manner as Chrome

rdp commented 11 years ago

@galkar are you using a release build? Mine don't crash on exit, are you using a debug build somehow?

Thank you. You right. It crashes on debug. I will try on release

rdp commented 11 years ago

Yeah this happens when apps are "bad" and don't close their directshow resources correctly. Which is...unfortunately lots of them :)

I found this thread, trying to troubleshoot a similar issue. I use Win7 64 bit, and SCR doesn't seem to play with my browsers. I use Opera normally, but I tested Firefox and IE 11 and neither work. For all, the SCR "webcam" item is selectable in the flash player, but it shows a blank screen. I have a webcam which I can select, which shows properly in all browsers, so I know it should work. (Note: When I select SCR after having looked at the webcam, it will keep showing the image that the webcam saw last, without updating.)

I tried the Firefox protected mode flag mentioned earlier, to no avail. I tried installing the 64-bit Nightly Firefox version, and it did not help. IE 64 bit (found under C:\Program Files\ rather than C:\Program Files (x86)) didn't work, either.

VirtualDub lets me see all input devices, and there are two items that show the desktop. One is of dimensions of about 160x120, and the other is fullscreen, and responds to SCR's capture dimension settings.

Chrome worked with SCR out of the box, so I can work with it for now. (There is no crash when I close it, as reported by someone else, earlier.) Let me know if there's something you want me to test to help you out.

rdp commented 10 years ago

Yeah, sounds like your flash player in FF and IE are "newer" versions that are security sandboxed so can't do desktop screen capture, FWIW.
