Screenshot Captor / Is it possible to capture a RDP (remote desktop) session?

« on: January 12, 2010, 11:18 PM »

Hi,

Here is the scenario: Let's say I have 2 computers and I use RDP from PC1 to remotely access PC2. I have SC running on PC1 and my RDP session is "full screen".  I would like to capture the RDP screen (full screen) but all hot keys presses (prtscn, cntrl-alt prtscn, etc.) I tried were not "seen" by PC1 so SC is not triggered to take a screen shot.

Is this possible to do what i need to do?  I have the same problem when using KVM-over-IP to remotely access a computer.  Both situations failed because all key presses are being sent to the remote computer. I wish I know what special key sequent that is always "seen" by the local PC, such as the Cntl-Alt-Del, while inside a RDP or KVM-over-IP window.

Thank you in advance for any suggestions!

Thank you again.  This is exactly what I was looking for! 

A final question if I may (I promise):

If the mouse click in not on an application window (ie: desktop area, task bar, Start, etc.), can I not trigger the prtscr?  In other words, can I trigger only when a click is in an app window (including the title bar and border)?

Skwire, this is awesome!  Thank you so much for such a quick turn-around.  I will test it tomorrow in my work pc...but given the confirmation from mouser (thanks!), I know it will work for me.

One question: what change can I make to the code to have every mouse click trigger the prtscr without clicking on the titlebar?  Is this significantly more difficult to achieve?  Thanks!

Yes, you are correct.  However, after giving it some thoughts, I figured it may be easier to implement for every click then conditional clicks.  If by making the request simpler, my hope is that I can find a close-enough solution sooner.   Thanks.

Basically, I am currently using Screenshot Captor and I defined the PrtScr button to capture the active window each time I press it.  What I hope to do is to eliminate the need to press the PrtScr button by leveraging the left-button click on mouse to trigger it.  The left-mouse button click must still function as normal but now with an added function of simulating a press of the PrtScr button.  Is there such a program available that can help me do this?  Or can someone create a script to do this?  Thank you in advance for any suggestions.
