Thanks, It’s what I suspected. And I use the typescript, for SSH/TELNET already.

So going back to my question. Would guacaenc support writing snapshots every 
second?  And moreover, if it did that instead of writing M4V would be a lot 
faster?

An intense high res 1 Hour RDP, can take guacenc 15-30 minutes to complete?

For purely-graphical connections like VNC and RDP, no, OCR would really be the 
only option. Once the data leaves the VNC/RDP server, it's just a fragment of 
an image and has lost all text meaning. If you enable recording of keyboard 
events, you would be able to infer what is being typed, but the only way to 
read the graphical content of the screen would be OCR.

For connections driven by text like SSH, telnet, and Kubernetes, you can 
leverage Guacamole's support for typescripts. Each typescript is the raw text 
data received from the server prior to being rendered, including console codes, 
coupled with a separate file containing timing information.

Mike,

Is there a less convoluted way to grab the text displayed?

I had an idea for another parameter to guacenc.

gaucenc generates an M4V file.

Could it optionally, generate PNG Snapshot images instead. Every second. 
1.file.png, 2.file.png ….

Why?
