java -jar screenShotTaker.jar times out for large screens about calabash-android HOT 5 CLOSED

The bits that actually do the screenshotting are in ddmlib, part of the AOSP. In particular, take a look here to see where the framebuffer is fetched. It looks like the default timeout is 5s as defined here. If you dig up the sourcecode for screenShotTaker.jar, you might be able to call DdmPreferences.setTimeout(int) before taking the screenshot to give yourself more breathing room on the tablet.

I will make the screenShotTaker source available on GitHub. It is indeed using ddmlib.

We have thought about taking the screenshots directly on the device instead of using ddmlib.
It would then give you the screenshot directly on <device_ip>:7102/screenshot.

Do you guys have any opinion about that?

That sounds like a great idea.

Yes, I like GET /screenshot ;)

They take a look at ab8601d.

Does that work for you on large displays?
I just tested it on a 720*1280 display with no issues. (curl localhost:34777/screenshot -o /dev/null took 0.7 second)
