This Visual Studio 2017 C# project illustrates the
LEADTOOLS Video Callback and
LEADTOOLS Still Image Writer filters. The purpose of this demo is to show two different methods for extracting frames from a video file and compressed individually as still bitmaps.
Using the still image writer, all frames in the file will be extracted. With the video callback filter, the custom user implementation can extract every frame or only specific frames if desired. Both filters have the ability to change the output file type.If other processing is necessary for each frame, the video callback is likely to be a better solution than the still image writer. One downside I found of using the video callback is that if the decoder begins to fall behind, it may drop frames in order to keep up with demand. This could be problematic depending on how many frames are dropped. If extracting is the only goal, the still image writer is an easier solution to implement.
This project is implemented using the
LEADTOOLS Multimedia 19 SDK and the
LEADTOOLS Imaging Pro SDK.
