You can only do so much.

Reading from a display adapter is slow no matter what you do.
The best you could hope for is full read/write access directly to
video RAM, which you're not going to get in a generic way that works
on all machines.

Your frame rate is pretty much unrealistic - especially for full screen.
For example, just one of my screens at 30fps would require over 200MB of
pixel data to be copied per second, and that's just getting the raw data.
Then you probably need to do something with all that data. I've found GDI
to be the most efficient, and the capture time is pretty insignificant compared
with actually processing the data (compressing, saving, etc.).

Good luck Smile | :)
