As the title said, GetImage() does not render the video output to image.
Does the video output from a video not get render onto the image before swap()?
Does it use its own viewport or something?

Any answer appreciated!

Is there a better function to screenshot the viewport?

I mean, I am using something like this:

Agk.Update(0);
Agk.Render();

Agk.GetImage(1, 0, 0, 1920, 1080);
Agk.SaveImage(1, "raw:/AGK/output/media/a.jpeg");
Agk.DeleteImage(1);

Agk.Swap();

Agk.ClearScreen();

If it help at all...

You need to do some swapping around



EDIT - Are you wishing to take a screen shot and save the current state of your app to a picture file - to potentially create a save/load thumbnail??? Nice idea....

Well, it turn out you do not need clearscreen....

Disabling render and the video is still running, but 2d and 3d object on screen is no longer render...
Does this proof video being play, even when using playvideotoimage() have the video render in a different overlapping viewport?
