Capturing without QT / not the whole Image
Feb 19th, 2008, 3:32pm  
Hey I got two problems:

1st:
I'm using the "video lib" for capturing a video from a DV-cam. At first sight no problem...BUT this is only working on a pc/mac with Quicktime. Later on I want my application to run on Linux/Win etc...Is it possible to capture a video with another library which doesn't use QT?

2nd: I don't want to capture the whole application, just a cutout of the whole. Is that possible too?

Woow, that's awesome.

(Sadly ^^) I'm working on a mac, but...I think I will install ubuntu soon, so this "little" problem will be although fixed ...gStreamer natively comes with the basic installation.

Yeah u helped me a lot. The only problem is now, how to crop a specific part of the applet which will be recorded.

Hm maybe I will find a solution for that!

Thx u!

from your statements it's not clear wether you want to capture (cam->display) or record (window-content->file).
anyway, without knowing what you really want to do, i keep recommending get(x,y,width,height) for croping PImages.
