How to capture screen menus from HD device


 
Hi,

I have a HD satellite stb running linux enigma2.

I want to do a demo of the menu system, HD pic, channel changes etc.

The box has both component and HDMI out. I was hoping I could use a software solution. I can find plenty of ways to record the stream using only software, but nothing that will capture the onscreen menus.

There is another thread here detailing how to capture from a PS3 using a Hauppage HD PVR. I think that should work, but it's an expensive solution for a one off demo.

Would there be any solutions available to do what I want?

Since it is linux based could you either VNC or X into it over ssh and then record the screen on the computer you are using?

Thanks for the suggestions.

The STB uses a Mips processor and the GUI is Enigma2. It was possible to run VNC on Enigma1 however at this stage it looks like there are no plugins available for the newer version as yet.
