Screenshot at Internal Resolution - loudaslife - 10-15-2014
I'd like to take screenshots of a GameCube game at the highest resolution possible, but I can't find any way to get it higher than my monitor resolution. I'm using 4x Native internal resolution, but when I take a screenshot from Dolphin's menu the resulting PNG is the resolution of the window, not the internal resolution of 2560x2112. Dumping the frames to AVI from the graphics menu has the same problem. Is there any way that I can take screenshots at a higher resolution?

Make the window size that higher resolution. If we dumped by internal resolution, bad things would happen, like having the aspect ratio messed up as well as incompatibilities with features, blah blah. The current way isn't so fundamentally bad that there's an easy way to fix it, unfortunately.

How can I make the window higher resolution than my monitor?

Use the Lock window size to internal resolution.

Windows prevents making a window bigger than your monitor's resolution. However, if you have a second monitor, you can cheat it. In windows's "change resolution" window, move your secondary monitor up waaay high so that you creates a massive virtual desktop for the game window to fill.

I found a great program that will let you manually edit window size, including creating windows higher resolution than your monitor. It's called Infinite Screen, and can be found here: http://ynea.futureware.at/cgi-bin/infinite_screen.pl
This, coupled with Anti-Aliasing, Filtering, and other enhancements makes for some amazing high resolution screenshots. Thanks for your help.
