public virtual void SaveStillBitmap( 
   string fileName,
   StillFormatType format,
   int quality,
   int flags,
   int timeOut
)

'Declaration

Public Overridable Sub SaveStillBitmap( _
   ByVal fileName As String, _
   ByVal format As StillFormatType, _
   ByVal quality As Integer, _
   ByVal flags As Integer, _
   ByVal timeOut As Integer _
)

'Usage

Dim instance As ConvertCtrl
Dim fileName As String
Dim format As StillFormatType
Dim quality As Integer
Dim flags As Integer
Dim timeOut As Integer
 
instance.SaveStillBitmap(fileName, format, quality, flags, timeOut)

public:
virtual void SaveStillBitmap( 
   String^ fileName,
   StillFormatType format,
   int quality,
   int flags,
   int timeOut
)

Parameters

fileName: A string containing the name of the file to which to save the bitmap.
format: A StillFormatType Value that represents the output file format.
quality: Value that represents the compression quality. For a list of possible values, refer to Compression Quality Factors. For the StillFormatType.CMP file format only, you can use the StillQuality enumeration values.
flags: Reserved for future use. Pass 0.
timeOut: The timeout period in milliseconds. The method fails if it is not able to take a sample within the specified time period. Use -1 to wait indefinitely until a sample is captured.

This method does not return until the timeout occurs or the sample is captured.
