multiple displays ? #71

Closed ccc-tomr closed 8 years ago

ccc-tomr commented 8 years ago

IS multiple displays supported ? I can't find any parameters in the screen-capture-recorder registry that would allow me to grab from anything other than the 'primary display' but I have seen some mentioning of multiple displays in the code.

If it is not implemented, how would I go about it ? Happy to work on that.

It would be possible to add this feature (today I just tell people to input the coordinates of the monitor they want to target :)

Good point, Thanks ! Following your advice I edited the registry keys 'start_x' and 'capture_width' and it worked. Now I can stream my PC's 2nd 'fake display' to another laptop and increase my pixel real estate using an old laptop or a tablet.

See also image attached (it shows grabbing desktop in between the 2 displays and streaming int into a browser) .

Since this addresses what I need, closing the issue...
