Alt-DVB V2.2 Screenshot - Techwatch Support Forums: Digital & Satellite TV, FTA, Cable, Computers, Mobile Phones, Apple and General Tech Forums

I'm totally sold on this (free) piece of DVB viewer software now.

Feature-packed, stable, slick and very easy on the CPU. Takes all your favourite MD plugins, and because of the efficient use of processing power, I've found it especially good for DVB-S HD.

Why not give it a go?

I nabbed the old Elecard codecs from ProgDVB and chucked them straight in here. Works a treat.

Err, and you can also take video screenshots just by using Alt/PrtScn!

Much easier than all the faffing about I used to have to go through with either MyTheatre or ProgDVB.

BGonaSTICK · 11-01-07, 12:31 AM

And talking of screenshots, here's one from a fullscreen channel.

Superb, and so easy to do.

Only 120K - straight out of the viewer.

Where did you get that picture of nano Stick?

By the way if any member want guidance on linking Altdvb 2.2 to their dreambox, give me a shout.

Not quite sure how to take that

Anymore of that and i'll come round and bite you :roflmao:

Sorry Nano, I have just noticed that I forgot the smileys.

Here is a screen grab of my Altdvb.
Of course, a double click on the picture puts it up to full screen. I have just shown it with all the options.

hmm when I try a screenshot like that from altdvb I get the actual tvstation still running and when I save it I just get a black screen.

BGonaSTICK · 02-02-07, 04:06 PM

Oh, that's odd. That was one of the things I really liked about it. I've no idea what might cause that :?

any ideas on this, is it because i need the right codec for it to work :? oh it is frustrating but i love it

Jimdefruit · 02-02-07, 05:35 PM

There is a batch file in the filters folder. Double click the file and it will register the codec
