Hello Guys
I want to capture a screenshot by using winapi only (no MFC wanted) and save it as bitmap into a tiff file.
The screen is captured correctly, but it looks like the bitmap is saved 4 times into the tiff and now looks like this:

     TIFFSetField( tiff, TIFFTAG_BITSPERSAMPLE, info.bmiHeader.biBitCount );

biBitCount is 24 for typical RGB images, but you need to pass 8 to libtiff as this number is "per sample".

Cheers
