REBOL and live video

 [1/3] from: carlos:lorenz:bol at: 28-Nov-2003 9:42


Hi list, I have this TV card on my PC and I'd like to know if it is possible to write REBOL scripts that could capture live video from this card thanks Carlos

:-) What does it mean "capture" ? Well, if you would like to apply some effect, transitions using rebol only - the bitmap handling is so slow, that you would wait >10 sec for one image being processed. As you may need 24 images per second, well :-) I think there might be way for you, using some library interface. But I don't know what libraries are available. I would suggest you using some conventional tools available. Look e.g. at http://www.doom9.org for suitable tools. -pekr-

http://videolan.org/ awesome GPL video tools with http built in :-) Rebolers get cooking!! Free Software and Open Source video streaming solution for every OS! The VideoLAN project targets multimedia streaming of MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4 and DivX files, DVDs, digital satellite channels, digital terrestial television channels and live videos on a high-bandwidth IPv4 or IPv6 network in unicast or multicast under many OSes. VideoLAN also features a cross-plaform multimedia player, VLC, which can be used to read the stream from the network or display video read locally on the computer under all GNU/Linux flavours, all BSD flavours, Windows, Mac OS X, BeOS, Solaris, QNX, Familiar Linux... VideoLAN is free software, and is released under the GNU General Public License. It started as a student project at the French École Centrale Paris but is now a worldwide project with developers from 20 countries. enjoy.. - Jason
