Different resolutions of screenshots depends on game #1

In menu plugin works almost fine. Gamepad screenshot is perfect 854x480 while TV screenshot is 1280x720 resolution instead of 1920x1080. In Breath of the wild plugin doesn't work. Nothing happens. In Xenoblade Chronicles X plugin works. But resolutions of both screenshots is very low. Both in 640x360 instead of 854x480 in Gamepad and 1920x1080 in TV screenshot.

This will be perfect screenshot plugin if resolution problem will be solved. Choise of button combo is a great feature (I also wish that TV control button was be able to use but I don't think it's possible). I also suggest to introduce a mods -- which of screens to capture -- Gamepad, TV or both (I have a capture card so TV screenshot is not neccesary), it would save some wii u system resources if it's a problem.

The screenshots are always taken at the native resolution, fixing it to a resolution would not increase the image quality at all. Zelda simply doesn't have enough memory to properly take screenshots.

Adding options to choose the screen to be captured is something that could be implemented very easily. I'll try to include it into one of the next releases

I don't think that Xenoblade's native resolution is 640x360, lower than PS2 games'.

This was about the "taking at 720p instead of 1080p issue". The problem with Xenoblade has a lack of memory. The plugin doesn't have enough memory to process a screenshot with a higher resolution and it fallbacks to 360p

Got it.

For high-memory usage games, could the plugin "stream" parts of the screenshot to the SD card, rather than trying to load the whole screenshot into memory then dumping it to the SD card?

Screenshots can now be taken in much higher quality with #5
