Re: [GEM-dev] missing [pix_write], that does only take pixes

hello everyone

i just realized, that [pix_write], unlike [pix_record], takes its images from the framebuffer. when working exclusively in the pix-domain, using [pix_write] creates a huge cpu-overhead, that wouldn't be necessary,

you are totally right.

afaik. otoh, [pix_record] does crash to often to be used in everyday life.

it would be good to fix this ;-)

is there a way to capture single images from a pix-stream? if not, are there plans for a [pix_image_write] (or however this should be called)?

i guess the main problem is that [pix_write] is already taken. so come up with a proper name ([pix_image_write] is almost as clumsy as [pix_buffer_read]) and it shall be done!
