Is there a way to take a screen shot of a video being played on any of the video players on the Samsung galaxy note. For non rooted phones please. I have tried using spen for various players but just get a blank screen shot for videos.
1 Pause
2 Slide hand across the screen
You cannot, not unless you can convince your player to use software rendering as opposed to overlays.
If you need one frame only from video, there is nice app from market: Frame grabber.

I have tried pausing and also without pausing and spen / slide of hand / home button +power button for screen shot with stock player / dice player / mxplayer pro, but always end with just the blank frame apart from seeing buttons of player.

I have tried software and hardware decoding modes for mxplayer but makes no difference and end with just blank frame for video screen shot.

Yes just need one frame for taking screenshot for labelling parts etc for powerpoint slides for teaching purposes. For example any teaching videos of procedures or ultrasound scan guided interventional procedures if I have a video but I need a frame at various stages to label the parts and use that frame as powerpoint slide. Will try the frame grabber you mentioned. Thanks.
Screencast on your Note Smartphone possible, but...

Screecasts without root access my experience, are almost impossible. There are options to root your phone.With Stockrom by Samsung you get problems. With a CustomROM CM 4.2.2 it´s working fine. The color error you also get solved. Watch PsionparkVideo on Youtube and search for "Screencast color failure corrected "

Hi guys,
I just wanted to let you know that my app is already out for a while now and I still haven't posted about it here.
Maybe some Chromecast owners could find it useful
This is Screen Stream Mirroring, it allows you to fully mirror your Android device to Chromecast, media players, web browsers, Chromecast, online broadcast...
Mirroring feature to Chromecast is out for a while, it was out even before Google announced their Mirroring feature
The app works from Android 4.0, and gives high quality results from Android 4.3 or higher.
Fo now for Chromecast the issue there is compared to other targets is that there is few seconds of delay introduced by Chromecast, I'll do my best to improve this if possible...
Main features are:
Mirror to Chromecast
Mirror to media players with RTSP
Mirror to web browsers with HTTP
Broadcast online to Twitch, Ustream, Youtube, and others ...
Mirror full audio if you have a rooted Android device (or microphone for all)
A lot of settings to change quality and speed
There is a free version: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobzapp.screenstream.trial
If you like it, want to support my work and purchase, here is the link to full version:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobzapp.screenstream
Main app thread on XDA is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-screen-mirroring-broadcasting-to-t3102378
App web site is here: http://mobzapp.com/mirroring
I hope I could have any feedbacks from XDA users.
Thanks !
Amazing app. Is it possible to get sound working on lollipop without root?
Doens;t work for me. None of the menu options do anything. The screen just stays on media players, which doesn't work either
Updated my Samsung s4 to lollipop the other day. Now the app doesn't work. Asks for root even if starting service from computer seems to work. Any ideas?

should work... but you can try with free version and see if that works.
good plan - will test it tonight when i get home from work/night out (!)
ah - just noticed its not compatible with 5.1.1 (I am on CM21.1)
Why do you say it's not compatible ?
based on the reviews - also i have just installed it and it glitches quite badly, i had to force close it to exit. I am afraid I had to uninstall it.

What do you mean by "ADB recording working with sound" ?
Also please disable the option "keep internal audio" if you enabled it, this is maybe what is causing you issue.
@Sloosh
"ADB recording working with sound" - When i Connect G901F to PC or type in Terminal emulator type "adb shell screenrecord /sdcard/MyScreenRecordingGreetingsForSloosh.mp4". Then i get ADB Recording.
This file have dynamic bitrate (if u dont set --bit-rate xx) and sound from system.
In app Screen Stream Mirroring i cant set dynamic bitrate (0 working acts as a dynamic bitrate? i dont know/test it.) But the worst is i cant set audio from system. From mic working without problem. Only not working internal/mixed.
Yes, app working without problems if i dont set in Sound settings: Internal or Mixes settings.
Tell me what it is due. The problem is that I can not even born debbuging apps because it is closed source and app not leave anything worthwhile in logcat. Since there hangs just shows that there is a problem with sound. Aplication have root permission. I wonder why it is not working because SoC is this same as Nexus 6.

Yes but did you try internal audio or mixed audio source with "keep internal audio" option disabled ??
I don't understand how your screenrecord command would record system audio, because this tool from Google do not record audio from what I know...
@Sloosh
With option "keep internal audio" and without "keep internal audio" recording dont working.
Now i checked screenrecording command. You're right recording without sound BUT i now connect my old phone - I9300 with nameless rom and screenrecording recording with sound... strange magic. I apologize for misleading.
Look at YT why i mean -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4M_kwCA-ogo

weird... please be sure you have the last version (last one is for now 2.1.5c).
Did you try restarting your device ? (if you try, again please try with "keep internal audio" disabled...)
@Sloosh
Yes, i have version 2.1.5c.
Did you try restarting your device ? (if you try, again please try with "keep internal audio" disabled...) --- No effect positive.
Hi!
If your Android is 4.4.2 or higher Chromecast app is able to mirror to Chromecast.

Hi, so far I love this app! But the camera overlay is so dark on my Note 5 it's unusable, even in broad daylight. I'm forced to use a "floating mirror" app instead until this is fixed.
#2 on my wishlist is a basic text/image overlay. Currently I'm using a custom widget to do this, along with the Overlays app which makes widgets into overlays. It all works fine (mostly), but together with the stupid mirror cam, that's a four-piece workaround to accomplish what I feel should be core functionality in Screen Stream Mirroring.
Thanks for your hard work and consideration. Like I said I love this app. It's worth the price and a lot more!

Any one Managed to get Chrome playing vedios in the background on MIUI ? I can get it to work on many other devices but not Xiaomi MIUI
Im only able to do that only when I switch to desktop mode
I'm on latest global stable 8.2.2 and have switched off both MIUI optimization and memory optimization , I have also locked the app so it remain active and all notification and permission is allowed !
Firefox vedio playback in background is ok
And advise is appreciated
Thank you

This was a bug a year ago. It's been patched; you were never supposed to be able to listen to anything in the background with chrome.

On Samsung devices example Galaxy S4 it still can play in Background . What do you mean by bug
Chrome bug or MIUI BUG
I Don't know how a feature can be called a bug ?
Thanks

Because it isn't a feature. The Chrome devs intentionally designed the app so that media cannot play in the background. It should not work like that on the Galaxy S4 (because that isn't the intended behaviour). Therefore it is a bug. There might be xposed mods or similar that can enable the functionality but other than using a different browser app you should not be able to play anything in the background.

Samsung apps need Samsung framework, Sony's apps don't
That's the reason you can't use Samsung player
