Is it possible to video screen capture the device screen with Corona?

Hello guys,

I am thinking of an app (project X!)  that will need me to take a few seconds of a video screen capture and save it to a file (or send it out) I am not looking at a video screen capture using a PC or a mac but something that is internal to the device.

I have seen some apps (not Corona app) that seems to be able to allow playback of an gameplay but I  do not know if they just simulate the game again (it was a flight simulator game) or they actually take a video screen shot of the game in action.

I could probably take (using a timer) multiple static screenshots rapidly and then display them like a movie. But of course I would prefer to take a video screen capture of the screen and save it to the photo library.

I was very happy to see the media library but I do not think it will allows what I need.

Thanks for any suggestions on how I could achieve that if possible.

We don’t have any native API’s that can do that at the moment.  

Thanks Rob for the fast answer! That is what i was afraid about.

No biggy. I may just take bunch of snapshot at rapid paced…
