Remarks

Note

This function isn't safe to call on a time-sensitive thread. For more information, see Time-sensitive threads.

Screenshots are not accessible from the game partition and so you must open a stream in order to retrieve screenshots taken by the user or with XAppCaptureTakeScreenshot. XAppCaptureTakeScreenshot returns a localID in its result which is used in this function to retrieve the proper screenshot. The localID will be valid as long as the screenshot is retained on disk. There is only a limited amount of space on the console in which screenshots are stored. Older screenshots will be deleted when the allotted space is filled. This could potentially cause the open screenshot function to miss on a localID. After opening the stream you may read the screenshot with XAppCaptureReadScreenShotStream. Finally every stream needs to be closed with XAppCaptureCloseScreenshotStream in order to avoid a memory leak.

XAppCaptureTakeScreenshotResult takeScreenshotResult = {0};
XAppCaptureScreenshotStreamHandle handle = nullptr;
UINT64 totalBytesToRead = 0;
XAppCaptureScreenshotFormatFlag screenshotFormat = XAppCaptureScreenshotFormatFlag::SDR;
bool hdrAvailable = false;

/* ... obtain takeScreenshotResult with XAppCaptureTakeScreenshot. Refer to corresponding documentation ... */

hdrAvailable = static_cast<bool>(takeScreenshotResult.availableScreenshotFormats & XAppCaptureScreenshotFormatFlag::HDR);

/* Note: It is optional to obtain the HDR screenshot, if HDR is available. You will need to call XAppCaptureOpenScreenshotStream twice to obtain both SDR and HDR screenshots */
if (hdrAvailable)
{
    screenshotFormat = XAppCaptureScreenshotFormatFlag::HDR;
}

if (FAILED_LOG(XAppCaptureOpenScreenshotStream(takeScreenshotResult.localId, screenshotFormat, &handle, &totalBytesToRead)))
{
    return;
}

appLog.AddLog("%I64d bytes returned\n", totalBytesToRead);

/* You must always call XAppCaptureCloseScreenshotStream on an open XAppCaptureScreenshotStreamHandle to avoid a memory leak */
if (handle != nullptr)
{
    XAppCaptureCloseScreenshotStream(handle);
}
