versions

  • SlimerJS: Version 0.10.3
  • Firefox:
  • Operating system: ubuntu 14.04

Steps to reproduce the issue

Actual results:

Actually instead the video mp4/h264 into the htmI5 page see a white space instead of the video, then I tryed with an APNG but it capture only few frames..

Expected results:

grab every frame with 25fps and save them as png or jpeg images

well, you better try some alternative solution rather than screencapture, most no drm html5 video can be capture from direct download link or HLS with some assistant like youtube-dl or streamlink, you just take wrong approach to do that.

thanks, but then I was able to grab the frames of the mp4 video embedded in the hml6, it is possible also with phantomjs..
