Capture Real-time Video Frames

[benchat]

Nice Work!
I would like to capture and consume/manipulate the video streams/frames during the capture and display of the android device on my Windows PC. How can I achieve this using scrcpy.exe?

Currently, scrcpy is a standalone app (not a lib), so it does not expose an easy way to retrieve the frames programmatically.

Since it's open source, you can just fork and edit to do what we want on new frame:

scrcpy/app/src/scrcpy.c

Line 134 in 8507fea

case EVENT_NEW_FRAME:

Or you could also just use the scrcpy server and reproduce the steps the clients does (but the protocol is "internal" and changes across scrcpy versions). See #129, #613 and #673.
