Capture Your Screen and Weave It into a Video with Python Magic!

This Python project provides a streamlined solution for generating video recordings from your screen activity. It leverages powerful libraries like python-mss for efficient screen capture and OpenCV (cv2) for image and video processing.

Key Features:

  • Effortless Video Creation: Automate the conversion of captured screenshots into videos, streamlining your workflow.
  • Customizable Capture: Tailor the capture process to your needs. Define triggers, regions of interest, and frame rate for optimal video quality.
  • Open-Source and Flexible: Modify the code to suit your specific use cases. Integrate additional processing or visualization techniques provided by OpenCV (e.g., annotations, transitions, visual effects).
  • Interactive Capture with WebSockets (Advanced)
    • Extend the project's functionality to enable real-time control of screen capture from a web browser.

Installation:

  1. Ensure you have Python 3 and pip installed on your system.

  2. Install the required libraries using the following command in your terminal:

    pip install python-mss opencv-python websockets

  3. Basic Usage:

  • Modify the capture logic within the server function (look for comments) to determine how screenshots are captured (e.g., user interaction, timed intervals). Refer to the python-mss documentation for advanced capture options: https://github.com/topics/screenshot?l=python&o=asc&s=stars

  • Run the script using the following command in your terminal:

     ```bash
 python server_2.py
 ```

    python client.py

The script will capture screenshots based on your defined logic and build a video named or stream.

  • For an interactive screencast experience, consult the project's source code and documentation (if available) to learn how to implement real-time capture control using websockets.

Potential Applications:

  • Recording software tutorials and demonstrations
  • Creating detailed walkthroughs and guides
  • Capturing game sessions or software behavior
  • Generating time-lapse or stop-motion videos
