ILMVStabilize Interface

This is the interface for the LEAD Video Stabilizer Filter.

Data Types

lmvstab_enumClippingOption

Summary

Describes possible cropping options.

Syntax

typedef [v1_enum] enum lmvstab_enumClippingOption 
{ 
   lmvstab_CLIPPINGOPTIONS_OUTLINE, 
   lmvstab_CLIPPINGOPTIONS_CROP, 
   lmvstab_CLIPPINGOPTIONS_CROPANDSTRETCH 
} lmvstab_enumClippingOption; 
Enumeration Description
lmvstab_CLIPPINGOPTIONS_OUTLINE Frame the resulting video with bands of the specified color. The video size remains the same as that of the original.
lmvstab_CLIPPINGOPTIONS_CROP Crop the video. Video size is smaller than that of the original.
lmvstab_CLIPPINGOPTIONS_CROPANDSTRETCH Crop the video but then resize it so it is the same size as the original.

lmvstab_GlobalEstimationCoefficients

Summary

Describes the possible stabilization options.

Syntax

typedef [v1_enum] enum lmvstab_GlobalEstimationCoefficients 
{ 
   lmvstab_GLOBALESTIMATIONCOEFFICIENTS_X_Y, 
   lmvstab_GLOBALESTIMATIONCOEFFICIENTS_X_Y_THETA 
} lmvstab_GlobalEstimationCoefficients; 
Enumeration Description
lmvstab_GLOBALESTIMATIONCOEFFICIENTS_X_Y Fix the shaking that occurs along the x and y axes.
lmvstab_GLOBALESTIMATIONCOEFFICIENTS_X_Y_THETA Fix the shaking that occurs along both axes as well as fix shaking from rotation.

lmvstab_GlobalEstimationQuality

Summary

Describes quality options.

Syntax

typedef [v1_enum] enum lmvstab_GlobalEstimationQuality 
{ 
   lmvstab_GLOBALESTIMATIONQUALITY_1, 
   lmvstab_GLOBALESTIMATIONQUALITY_2, 
   lmvstab_GLOBALESTIMATIONQUALITY_3, 
   lmvstab_GLOBALESTIMATIONQUALITY_4 
} lmvstab_GlobalEstimationQuality; 
Enumeration Description
lmvstab_GLOBALESTIMATIONQUALITY_1 Highest quality but slow processing.
lmvstab_GLOBALESTIMATIONQUALITY_2 More performance, lower quality.
lmvstab_GLOBALESTIMATIONQUALITY_3 Slower performance, better quality.
lmvstab_GLOBALESTIMATIONQUALITY_4 Fastest but worst quality.

lmvstab_PathSmoothingLevel

Summary

Describes the amount of path smoothing. Many factors determine which amount is best for a particular video, including:

Syntax

typedef [v1_enum] enum lmvstab_PathSmoothingLevel 
{ 
   lmvstab_PATHSMOOTHINGLEVEL_1 = 4, 
   lmvstab_PATHSMOOTHINGLEVEL_2 = 8, 
   lmvstab_PATHSMOOTHINGLEVEL_3 = 12, 
   lmvstab_PATHSMOOTHINGLEVEL_4 = 16, 
   lmvstab_PATHSMOOTHINGLEVEL_5 = 24, 
   lmvstab_PATHSMOOTHINGLEVEL_6 = 32, 
   lmvstab_PATHSMOOTHINGLEVEL_7 = 64, 
   lmvstab_PATHSMOOTHINGLEVEL_8 = 128, 
   lmvstab_PATHSMOOTHINGLEVEL_COUNT = 8 
} lmvstab_PathSmoothingLevel; 

lmvstab_InterpolationType

Summary

Describes the possible interpolation options when shifting and rotating input frames to get stabilized output.

Syntax

typedef [v1_enum] enum lmvstab_InterpolationType 
{ 
   lmvstab_INTERPOLATIONTYPE_NEAREST, 
   lmvstab_INTERPOLATIONTYPE_BILINEAR 
} lmvstab_InterpolationType; 

Two interpolation methods are available, as follows:

Enumeration Description
lmvstab_INTERPOLATIONTYPE_NEAREST Simple and fast interpolation
lmvstab_INTERPOLATIONTYPE_BILINEAR Better quality interpolation but slower

lmvstab_APILEVEL

Summary

Lists the valid values for the ApiLevel parameter that can be passed to the ResetToDefaultsEx method.

Syntax

typedef [v1_enum] enum 
{ 
   lmvstab_APILEVEL_1 = 0, 
   lmvstab_APILEVEL_Latest = lmvstab_APILEVEL_1 
} lmvstab_APILEVEL; 

Members

lmvstab_APILEVEL_1

Uses the defaults from the first version of the filter.

lmvstab_APILEVEL_Latest

Uses the defaults from the latest version of the filter.

Properties

Type Name Description
VARIANT_BOOL Enabled Enables or disables video stabilization. If set to VARIANT_FALSE, the filter passes the video samples intact.
VARIANT_BOOL AutoReconnect If set to VARIANT_TRUE, the filter can apply changes that affect media types while the graph is running (without having to stop and manually reconnect). This includes options such as clipping.
VARIANT_BOOL ROIEnabled If set to VARIANT_TRUE, the filter processes only the region of interest. Otherwise, the entire frame gets processed.The region of interest restricts the area considered when reducing shaking, but the reductions are applied to the entire frame. Limiting the filter to a portion of the video increases performance, allowing the filter to be run in real time.
LONG ROITop Top coordinate, in pixels, of the region of interest
LONG ROILeft Left coordinate, in pixels, of the region of interest
LONG ROIBottom Bottom coordinate, in pixels, of the region of interest
LONG ROIRight Right coordinate, in pixels, of the region of interest
lmvstab_GlobalEstimationCoefficients GlobalEstimationCoefficients Gets or sets the type of stabilization to be performed.
lmvstab_GlobalEstimationQuality GlobalEstimationQuality Gets or sets the balance between the speed and the quality of the processing.
lmvstab_PathSmoothingLevel PathSmoothingLevel Gets or sets the lmvstab_PathSmoothingLevel values to be used.
OLE_COLOR BkFillColor Color to use to fill any empty areas resulting from processing.
LONG LeftRightCropMargin Left and right crop margin
LONG TopBottomCropMargin Top and bottom crop margin
lmvstab_InterpolationType InterpolationType Gets and sets the lmvstab_InterpolationType value to be used.
lmvstab_enumClippingOption ClippingOption Gets and sets the lmvstab_enumClippingOption value to be used.
VARIANT_BOOL CropEnabled Enables or disables video cropping. If set to VARIANT_TRUE, the filter can apply changes that affect media types while the graph is running.
Cropping can be a result of clipping options.
VARIANT_BOOL UseAdvancedEngine Enables or disables the usage of the Advanced stabilization engine, which is built and configured automatically to optimize performance and video edges quality. The Advanced stabilization engine depends on certain capabilities in the host system. Use the AdvancedEngineAvailable property to determine whether the engine is available. If set to VARIANT_TRUE, the filter will use the Advanced stabilization engine and all other filter properties will have no effect. If set to VARIANT_FALSE, the filter will use the Standard engine configured with all other filter properties.
VARIANT_BOOL AdvancedEngineAvailable (Read only) Gets a value indicating whether the Advanced stabilization engine is available for use. This property checks for the availability of certain capabilities in the system.

Methods

HRESULT ResetToDefaultsEx(lmvstab_APILEVEL ApiLevel)

Description

Restores the default options for all properties.

Parameters

ApiLevel

The ApiLevel determines which default values to use. Current applications should set ApiLevel to lmvstab_APILEVEL_1 = 0.

Comments

The filter might change in the future and have different properties or default behavior. Calling this method ensures the filter will have the same default values as they were at the time you developed your application.

Notes:

Returns

S_OK always.
