Search vic sources for grabber-x11.cpp (vic can be configured to transmit a live stream of a X11-root/single window via rtp, if i remember right). Or have a look how grabbing works in scrot and ImageMagick: Search imlib/imlib2 sources for "Imlib_create_image_from_drawable" or ImageMagick soucres for "XImportImage". - -- Christian Hiris <4711@chello.at> | OpenPGP KeyID 0x3BCA53BE OpenPGP-Key at hkp://wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net and http://pgp.mit.edu -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFBVX3d09WjGjvKU74RAvGfAJ0Vl2Qhi9yBXUgYsBaNQoCcgXzqJgCff1sz WGVSjdXFTKzzp8/PqK5eTts= =8xRK -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
