This does not give me a comferting feeling as Windows looks like far from getting rolled out, so they probably have not even started developing a **** thing for Android
it looks like Android users almost always get the interesting features last
@sjaak_van_Haasteren Thank you for this feedback and sorry for the frustration. In most cases, we don’t build platform-specific features, and whenever possible we build for all platforms at the same time (although we might roll them out independently, given how different app stores work, etc.). In the case of Video Screenshots, this feature required writing unique, platform-specific code for each operating system to ensure it didn’t cause performance impact to the game, and rather than holding back the feature until all platforms were finished, we instead decided to roll it out incrementally as each platform was available.
And therefore are we Android users (allready confronted with a bad screen resolution and other issues) the last one in line to recieve this feature?
I still think it is also verry strange that ZHQ crancked up the requirements for Android devices at the end of last year, but almost a half year later nothing has been done to improve the quality of Zwifting with an Android device. IMO the last half year it looks more like a decrease of quality than an improvement.
I stopped using my Windows 11 laptop beacause of the frequent crashes and bought an new Android device this year. When I ride with Zwift these days it sometimes looks as if I am back in the 90’s when I played computer games.
Hi @evan-zwift
Thanks for all the work you have done.
I can get the video capture on my iPhone 14 pro max but not on Apple TV at the moment
I am thinking getting a iPad Air with M1 chip. Will that iPad be able do video capture or I need a iPad Pro with M1 chip (gen 3) or the M2 chip (gen 4)?
Yep, Video Screenshots is currently rolled out to iOS devices running M1/M2 chips so you should be good to go with the iPad Air M1.
@evan-zwift thanks for your advice.
I did some research and many said iPad Pro graphics is “basic” … recently stumbled on the new Mac mini and found out the basic model is the same price as iPad Air … a relative more ideal for me and graphics is awesome
I have two Apple TV boxes and the video screenshot feature is not an option on either of them. Is it only available on certain models?
We haven’t rolled out to Apple TV just yet, but we’re planning to in the near future. We’re still evaluating which exact models will get it first.
When will this be available for pc?
And when will Android get it???
Have they allready started working on the Android video mode ??? The last time I asked (months back) you told us they did not even get started on the Android video module. And to be honest it is takeing a really long time now to get even a hint of a time frame.
Bumping this as really eager to see the feature on PC or android.
Any ETA for video screenshots for MacOs with all these rollouts please?
Hi folks, in case you haven’t seen, starting today we’re beginning to roll out Video Screenshots to Apple TV: Video Screenshots - Apple TV Release [June 2023]
We’re doing some final testing and performance evaluation of the Windows version of Video Screenshots, and within the next few weeks we’ll likely start rolling out to some Windows devices. The specifics are still to be determined based on our performance evaluation, but I’ll share more in a new forum post once we start rolling it out.
Android timeline is not yet set; right now we’re just starting to work on an internal proof-of-concept and get a better understanding of Android’s video capture capabilities and performance. We’ll be evaluating those soon which will help better inform next steps and I’ll share back here more when I can.
Continuing the discussion from Zwift Video Screenshots (Apple release) [February 2023]:
Still not had an answer re time frame please- my last posted question from this morning has been locked down and linked to prior posts that say there is a rollout - my question is when will the video screen shot rollout complete please? I have a Macbook air. I’m not sure why my post was locked off- the question remains to be answered please?
Hey @MTaylor_AHDRL - currently Video Screenshots is available for all macOS devices with M1 (and newer) processors, and for Macbook Airs it looks like that includes 2020 models and newer. We’re still working on expanding to additional devices over time.
Would you mind sharing the specific model Macbook Air that you’re using?
That sounds bizar late to me in comaprison to the other platforms. As usual Android is getting this kind of stuff last and probably will get the worst image quality just like the app does.
The screenshots are capped across the platforms owing to limitations on Strava.
A platform had to go first and a platform has to go last.
When you say ‘as usual’ do you have other examples of where Android users have been mistreated in your opinion?
