| Author: sgammon@google.com (Stacey Gammon) |
| |
| Captures streaming video and outputs to a sample webm file. |
| |
| Building with Eclipse (Unix/Mac) |
| |
| 1) Open eclipse (must have c/c++ framework installed). |
| 2) Select Import -> General -> Existing Projects into Workspace |
| 3) Browse to where you downloaded the quickcapturesample folder & select it as |
| the root. |
| 4) (Mac Only) Copy maclibs/libvidcap.1.dylib into /usr/local/lib/ |
| 5) Build using configuration UnixDebug or MacDebug, depending on your OS. |
| |
| Building with Visual Studio 2008 (Windows) |
| |
| 1) Open up Win/QuickCapture.sln |
| 2) Must have DirectShow SDK Installed. |
| 3) Build Solution. |
| |
| The appropriate libraries for vpx and webmmux are included, but you can also |
| link to newer versions as they become available. |
| |
| Running: |
| |
| Windows: Win/Debug/quickcapture.exe |
| Linux: UnixDebug/QuickCaptureSample |
| Mac: MacDebug/QuickCaptureSample |
| |
| Output file: sample.webm (in the same folder you ran the program in). |
| |
| To play the output file, use Windows Media Player, or point to the file in a |
| Chrome of Firefox browser. |
| |
| Notes: |
| |
| - You can adjust the width and height, but not all values will neccesarily work. |
| Default value of width at 640 and height at 480 works on all platforms. |
| |
| - You can also adjust the video bitrate, and the capture frame rate. |
| |
| - If you run into problems, try downloading and building the latest libraries |
| (libvpx, webmmux, etc) for your specific platform. |
| |
| TODO: |
| - Use gyp files to create .sln and eclipse project files. |
| - Take file output name as an input parameter. |
| - Create makefiles to allow building from command line |
