notice that bbox is (x1, y1, x2, y2), so (781, 925, 814, 941) is a narrow screen.

this is my example:

screen_w = 1920
screen_h = 1080 

while True:
    rgb = ImageGrab.grab(bbox=(0, 0, screen_w, screen_h)) #x1, y1, x2, y2
    rgb = np.array(rgb)

    cv2.imshow('window_frame', rgb)

    if cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF == ord('q'):
        break
