Hello!

I'm trying to build a module to my application (which is based on ffmpeg) that 
can have as a video input - screen. My application is cross-platform (win, 
linux, os x). Unfortunately, there is no built-in support in ffmpeg for screen 
capturing (except for linux, where x11grab can be used as an input device for 
ffmpeg). So i'm looking for ways how can i do it in OS X and WIN. For OS X i 
can write a plugin based on QtKit and make ffmpeg to support it. But for 
windows it is a terrible story... 
I found an article (http://www.codeproject.com/KB/dialog/screencap.aspx) where 
it is explaining how to make a screen capture in windows, but this code depends 
on Windows Media Encoder 9 which is an old one and Microsoft is no longer 
supporting it. Microsoft now is offering to use Microsoft Expression Encoder 
(http://www.microsoft.com/expression/products/EncoderPro_Overview.aspx) which 
has limit on screen capturing duration (no more than 10 minutes in free version 
:( ). 

I suppose that there is other ways how can i capture the screen in windows. Any 
ideas?
