Capture only results in a captured black rectangle image

Post by Kisalise »

Whenever I try to capture something, Capture brings up a black screen and results in only an image of a captured black rectangle.

Which Capture mode are you using, a screenshot of your settings and of XnViewMP displaying the captured image may be helpful?

Seems to work for me, except for a possible querry about what 'Active window' should capture...

Windows 7 SP1 x64 XnViewMP 0.75 and 0.76

All four methods (Desktop, Active window, Window and Rectangle) result in images of large black rectangles with small differences in size.

I see what you mean!

I should have said that I tested XnViewMP x32 versions, I don't know if that could be relevant??

Edit:

And a screenshot of your selected settings for one of the modes, in case one of those settings is relevant?

I've tried on win 7 x64, and no problem. Do you had this problem in previous version too??
