Recorder not recording table, instead the backglass. Recording wrong screen

[wrd1972]

I recorded another 10 or so new tables, and a third of them easily had the black screen as well. Most seem to be VPM tables, but there other VPM tables that recorded perfectly fine. Still no hangs which is good. Again everything looks fine on the screen, and they are completely playable as well.

Thanks. I need the logs for when it is recording.

The last two logs I sent right after the recording process pertain to the black screen issue. Do you need something different?

[wrd1972]

I just checked the PBXR recordings, and they are all intact. No black screen issues. I copied the ffmpeg.exe from PBXR and dropped it in the Pinballx folder to be used with its recorder. After testing, same thing...,black screen on acdc.

The log below shows the recording for acdc with the black screen.

I see no recording in that log.

Crap. This log shows the parameters for recording ACDC. Again, the recording comes out solid black. Even the icon of the file in the videos folders is different than all of the other good videos. Seems like a format issue, but how can that be if its simply told to record whats visible on my #3 display?

Weird. It does not appear to be timing out. So all tables good apart from that one?

No. There are other random table getting the black screen too.

[wrd1972]

Would it be possible to add a feature that when a button/key is pushed, the recording process would immediately begin?

Currently, you have a countdown timer I think. This feature would be helpful, but its by no means a game-changing type request. It would simply speed up the recording process when you have a bunch of tables. Just something to think about since were polishing the recorder.

Any update on this. Maybe we are almost there.

Sorry, not had much more of a look at it. I am not sure what the issue is right now but will get back to it soon.
