Taksi is a program that will help you take screenshots and record video clips of your favorite games and other 3D-graphics software.
Taksi aims to provide an open source alternative to that great tool.
Capture specifications:
Screenshot format: 24 bit BMP files.
Video: compressed or uncompressed AVI-files (no audio).
Taksi writes uncompressed AVI files. Basically, this means you need a lot of free disk space. (Once captured, the AVI-files can be compressed into much smaller files, using the tools like an excellent free software program, called VirtualDub by Avery Lee.) However, at the time of capture, for performance reasons, no compression is done, which means that video files grow large very fast.
There is no time limit in the video capture mode, so the only constraint is the available disk space. Keep this in mind, when setting the directory for you captured videos.
Here are some key features of "Taksi":
· Supports user-specified key mapping, allowing user to assign almost any key to a particular function (such as video start / stop, screenshot trigger, etc.).
· Runtime re-mapping of the keys is supported via GUI: user can change keys without having to restart the game.
· Custom video settings are supported (see manual.txt for more details about this).
· Basically, this allows a user to specify on a per-game basis the frame rate of the captured video, and the weight of each source frame.
· The weight determines whether a particular frame is captured or not. This allows for creation of smoother and faster videos, when generic algorithm doesn't produce desired results.
