A Question and a Tomcat

Postby ReverseThrust » Fri Jan 30, 2004 6:39 pm

Mainly the first one, but I felt guilty posting in this forum without a pic.  Thought I'd get the best answers in this forum though.

??? I am currently using grabclipsave to capture shots.  it seems to have a 'fatal error' every other shot or so!  So: A) is this a common, easy fix issue? and B) what other programs are there like GrabClipSave that could work better? ???



Here's what I dug up....

I use Mgrab for all of my screenshots and you can find it here.  I haven't had a problem with it yet.

Boeingman,

I have used GCS and had the same problem. There is an easy fix that worked for me. In the Output tab, set the thread priority and max number of threads BOTH to max. This solved my problems ;)

I use GCS and I've never had a problem with it.  That's what I do all of my screencaps with.  Unless it's a video capture, then I use Fraps.
Great edit, Bob.
