I want to generate screen shots of a EAGLView using Everyplay SDK but unable to do it. In Everyplay's github page, change log say we can call [[[Everyplay sharedInstance] capture] takeThumbnail]; as many times we want but I don't find any way to obtain image from that.

Also, EveryplayCapture class provides a property "thumbnailTextureId" (I guess it refers to the opengl texture) but is always 0 or nil.

I don't want to use EAGLView's -snapshot method because the resultant image is not good enough (contains rough white border around sprites) for use.

Is there any way to obtain a screenshot image from everyplay?

You are close.

In your class (then one you pass to Everyplay init method) implement this callback methods:

 - (void)everyplayThumbnailReadyAtFilePath:(NSString *)thumbnailFilePath;

Now if you call 

[[[Everyplay sharedInstance] capture] takeThumbnail];

Everyplay will call the method above to inform you that it's ready - from there you can read it as file.

  • I am still not sure in which class should I implement `- (void)everyplayThumbnailReadyAtFilePath:(NSString *)thumbnailFilePath;` . Currently I initialize Everyplay instance in appdelegate and EveryplayCapture is initialized in EAGLViewController. Or should I implement it the class which implements the EveryplayDelegate? – Gaurav Singh Sep 24 '13 at 16:45
  • You can only take a thumbnail when you are recording. Incase you trigger the takeThumbnail when you are not recording, nothing happens. – Pauli Ojanen Sep 25 '13 at 09:16
  • This is not what I wanted. I wanted to take screen shot from opengles content as it happens on the screen. But as my concept about thumbnail was not correct, I accept this as answer to the question. – Gaurav Singh Oct 01 '13 at 07:09
