I wrote a code, and I want to run it in a server. I use windows remote connection for connecting to this server. I have some problems.
I want to run Image Grab for taking screenshot's too many times(approximately 3 times each second) for 7 hours. I use Pyautogui
package for screenshot. But when this program ran, an error occurred and program stops execution.
IOError: screen grab failed
I used other packages(like python ImageGrab()
) also, but it occurred again.
Code: I summarized my code for better understanding.
import pyautogui
import time
i=0
while(True):#i<200000
im=pyautogui.screenshot()
time.sleep(0.3)
i+=1
""""""
"""Main Algorithm"""
Comment: I use Pyautogui
package because it take screenshots too fast.
After too tries for how to handle this error I found solution:
Since Our error was IOError: screen grab failed
I wrote a try Exception
:
import pyautogui
import time
i=0
while(True):#i<200000
try:
im=pyautogui.screenshot()
time.sleep(0.3)
except IOError:
time.sleep(1)
im=pyautogui.screenshot()
i+=1
""""""
"""Main Algorithm"""
I added one second time sleep, for occurring exception. I don't know why, but by setting less than one second time sleep I saw that error again.
