Description
It's just a feature request.
Using gdigrab I was wondering if is possible to select monitors by using an alias based on the monitor number index instead of cropping to a specific resolution with region and offsets.
This will make a command more portable and resolution independent.
Es: i have 3 monitors.
ffmpeg -y -f -i monitor=1 -framerate 30 -c:v ffv1 capture.mkv
to capture only the monitor index 1
ffmpeg -y -f -i monitor=1,2 -framerate 30 -c:v ffv1 capture.mkv
to capture monitor 1 and 2
ffmpeg -y -f -i monitor=2,1,4 -framerate 30 -c:v ffv1 capture.mkv
to capture monitor 2,1 and 4 stitched in the specified order.
I hope it will not be a big deal, but will be nice if you will implement it!
Best Regards
