Error when one display is dpms off

Open kamiyaa opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

Not sure if this is the intended behavior but if one display is turned off via dpms (ie. a laptop screen) grim errors out with (in this case eDP-1):

failed to copy output eDP-1

I would think grim would just grab the other existing display(s)

Right. I wonder if wlroots should just fill a black frame in this case. Or go through requesting a new frame for all visible clients on the DMPS'ed output, then capture.
