Hello
I'm trying to accomplish the following using Mitov's video lab library.
Have a VLDSCapture - to capture the web camera
I need to compress the frames in memory (using VLCompression ???) with WMV3
and then add the compressed frames into a memory buffer.
I am not sure how to connect the VLDSCapture and to what component and what
is the event that I need to handle to get the compressed frames.
Any help appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Kind Regards

Hi Kind,

Connect the output of the VLDSCapture to VLCompression and the output of
the VLCompression to SLGenericFilter. Then use the events of the
SLGenericFilter to record the data in memory.

With best regards,

I've already given Boian a light-hearted nudge to improve the
documentation..... ;-)

The Mitov components are simply magnificent - nothing else comes close - but
I often have to ask Boian for advice or guidance each time I want to use
them. I think the problem arises because there are so many components, and
there isn't a kind of "high level" overview of them.

Boian is tremendously helpful and always provides the solution. But I'm
pretty sure an FAQ or enhanced User Guide would reduce his workload
considerably!

What we are actually trying to do is to improve our software
(www.e-lecta.com) using a better audio/video component set.
We are currently using the ACM/VCM approach for audio/video processing but
it has many limitations and seems the Audio/Video lab is just what we need.
So at the moment we are trying to estimate what will be necessary and how
much time we'll need to go first with AudioLab and then with VideoLab.
The problems we are facing are mainly with the documentation. There is a
large set of examples but still there are things that need to read
somewhere.
For example we currently use GSM 6.10 at 8kHz for encoding audio. We tried
to set up a small program with Audio Lab to use the same codec at 8kHz. What
I noticed is that the results are different. What I mean is that the quality
with waveXXX is not the same as using the DS version.... and other things
like that...
I am currently preparing a list of questions to send to the support team of
Mr. Mitov so that we handle these at once.

Regards

Hi Thack,

Thank you! Unfortunately since the release of 3.0 Beta 1, I have been
flooded with e-mils, and I have fallen behind on responses Sad

. Anyone
who has not received respond, please accept my apology, We are trying to
give priority to registered users.

We are also discussing what can be done to improve the documentations
and to add more FAQ. I am also looking at options to create better
newsgroups, and probably a WIKI type of collaborative documentation.

With best regards,
Boian Mitov

Hi Eddie,

Thank you!
We actually did setup a wiki today, for now experimentally Wink

. Still
playing with it. I am also looking at a way to populate it automatically
with our existing HELP files, and to make some tools/procedure to
re-sync it in the future. We use Doc-O-Matic, and as some functions
change we should be able to reflect some of those changes to the WIKI,
but we will see how it will go.

I will surely see to add some info in http://delphi.wikia.com/ .

With best regards,
Boian Mitov
