Capture resolution quality

Hi, I'm making an app to capture from vfw://0 and I'm testing 720x576 resolution. In my app I get:
http://83.168.75.132/skool/IQ1.gif
And in JMStrudio:
http://83.168.75.132/skool/IQ2.gif
As You can see in JMS image is clear and in my app looks like lower resolution is used and streched to 720x576. What am I doing wrong?
I set format like this:
Processor p;
p.setContentDescriptor(new ContentDescriptor(ContentDescriptor.RAW));
TrackControl tc[] = p.getTrackControls();
for(int i=0; i<tc.length; i++)
if(tc.getFormat() instanceof VideoFormat)
tc[i].setFormat(new RGBFormat(New Dimension(720,576),-1,Format.intArrat,-1.F,32,0x00FF0000,0x0000FF00,0x000000FF));
And later work on:
DataSource sc = p.getDataOutput();
And later on work on Buffer.
This is how I set the format. Please help.

I sort of thought you were using FrameMaker as you posted this in the FrameMaker Integration forum.
RSC will save in whatever format you want. The image is an image waiting to be saved in some format when you capture. There are configuration options but I now use SnagIt so I don't have a copy of RSC handy to look at.
Try images where you are just capturing and not editing in PS and do that with a new project. How does that work out?
After posting this, I will your post and this reply to the RoboHelp HTML category where it belongs.

  • WebcamPublisher Capture Resolution

    How do I set the capture resolution for the WebcamPublisher (or the camera if that's what I should be looking at).   I have my three way video conf. test code up and running but the capture resolution looks like it's very low.  I follwed the trail on the captureWidthHeightFactor setting but that didn't really lead anywhere.   I've read through the docs on compression quality and bandwidth, but I don't think that's my issue it just looks like there's a really low capture resolution.
    If anyone has any advice I'd appreciate it.
    Thank you,
    Eric

    Hi Eric,
    Thanks for bringing up this issue.
    We agree that out description of captureWidthAndHeightFactor is not upto mark and it should have provided more insight.
    I investigated through it and at this point, if you need to have a higher resolution, just set the captureWidthAndHeightFactor to a higher value, let's say 5. It can take values from 1-10 and you will see significant difference in with higher values.  Though we don't allow setting of native width and height, but setting the captureWidthAndHeightFactor( you can call it as resolution factor) will do the trick for you.
    We provide three types of aspect ratios (values in StreamManager class width base native width and height values) and then we multiply the values (width and height) with this factor while setting the mode of camera. In near future, we will have a better API like setResolutionFactor and make it more self-explanatory and might deprecate this API.
    Here is an example of test code to set the captureWidthandheightFactor.
    <rtc:AdobeHSAuthenticator id="auth" userName="[email protected]" password="hiruana80"  />
         <rtc:ConnectSessionContainer id="cSession" authenticator=""           width="100%" height="100%"                     roomURL="http://connectnow.acrobat.com/cocomobasu/myfifthroom" >
              <mx:HBox width="100%" height="100%">
                   <mx:VBox width="100%" height="100%" >
                        <rtc:WebcamPublisher id="webcamPub"                                                  captureWidthHeightFactor="5"/>
                        <rtc:WebcamSubscriber width="100%" height="100%"                                        webcamPublisher="" />
                        <mx:Button label="Start" click="webcamPub.publish()"/>
                   </mx:VBox>
              </mx:HBox>
         </rtc:ConnectSessionContainer> 
    Hope this helps. Let us know if it works ok with you.

  • Retrieve what video resolutions(quality) a youtube video has, with youtube api or packet analysis

    a youtube video is usually with multiple video resolutions (quality) like 240p, 360p,720p,etc how can I retrieve what video resolutions(quality) a youtube video has are there any youtube api which can get this information
    I think If I capture the packets when I'm watching a video, by analysing the packets, definitely I can know what resolution this video provides but I don't know which part the packet provide this information does anyone know this? thanks!

    I am no iPhone expert, but I believe it has to do with what connection you are using.
    I noticed this the other day, I watched a YouTube vid the other day connected to my home wifi, and it looked amazing. Then I went to show a co-worker the same vid while on the 3g network. It looked like crap, all large pixels and blury. Anyway that is what I noticed.

  • Audio capture - good quality

    I understand that the 5G can capture good quality audio now.
    How?

    No No No they do not. What is it we are trying to do,
    convert the IPOD into a PVR. Not enough hardware in
    the IPOD to do that. You need what I bought:

    Nope. I just want to access the hi-res audio capture, NOT video capture etc. The 5G iPod DOES allow hi-res audio input; but no one says how...

  • Which setting should I have my apple tv set for picture resolution/quality it takes like a whole day for a movie to download before we can watch it

    Which setting should I have my apple tv set for picture resolution/quality as it can take a whole day to download a movie before we can watch it??

    The video/audio display settings should set automatically for the best your TV can handle (720p AppleTV2, 1080p AppleTV3).
    The download resolution for rentals or playback of purchases from the cloud is set in settings for iTunes store.
    Sounds as though you have slow internet.  For near instant streaming of video from iTunes store you need around:
    Standard Definition     2.5 Mbps
    720p HD                    6 Mbps
    1080p HD                  8 Mbps
    Any slower for a given quality setting and the movie has to buffer as it can't keep up in real time.  This might be a few minutes if close to the rated speed or many hours, even overnight.
    As pcd251s suggests you could test internet speed (speedtest.net on a computer for example).  If that is fine, sometimes the LAN if on wifi can be extremely slow in certain locations - ethernet connections would troubleshoot that.
    Slow internet is the common issue here.  AppleTV does not have permanent storage and using it to play other content or browse trailers while a rental is buffering can reset the buffering process.   In such cases you might be better off planning in advance, renting in iTunes, letting the whole thing FULLY download and it will then be available across teh LAN to stream from computer to AppleTV under Computers>iTunes library name>Rentals.

  • App to capture high quality video; clip; bulk export high quality?

    Our students capture long videos in a high quality format (.DV), then often want to define clips within the movie, and hand them off to Compressor for compression. Unfortunatly, with the changes in Final Cut Pro X, we can find no viable way of doing that, and we've searched for hours in the app and online. The closet we found was to export stems out of the FCPX timeline using Roles:
    http://www.premiumbeat.com/blog/export-stems-out-of-your-final-cut-pro-x-timelin e-using-roles/
    For simply wanting to define multple clips (no combining of clips involved), this is rather tedious, but moreso, when we use this technique, indeed only the video and audio of the clips we hand off to Compressor is seen and heard, but we end up with video black on both sides of the clip, which greatly lengthens the processing time, not to mention that we then need to trim the dead air afterwards.
    We tried using iMovie 11, but unlike one or more previous versions, it is no longer possible to export multiple clips.
    We've downloaded Adobe Premiere, and will be testing this.
    Is there an OS X app that can capture high quality (.DV?) video/audio, make clips, then bulk export to .DV on disk, that doesn't cost over $500?

    Thank you, I'm exporting to DV now to try that out.
    I was choppy at my explanation, so let me go a little further. Maybe I do just use a DVD player to play this - but, let me explain further - maybe I'm not doing something right in creating the DVD.
    I 'shared' from iMovie to iDvd - and burnt right to a DVD. Again, the movie was shaky on the computer. We played it on a DVD player, still a little shaky.. but not near as noticable - it looked pretty good. BUT - this is when the dvd stopped. I hit play, and it picked up right where it left off. I also was skipping through chapters, and it stopped all of the sudden. I had to go back to the main menu to start over. This was all done on a dvd player. Eventually, we played the rest of the video and it went ok. But, something tells me there might be a glitch in the DVD I created.... ?
    Someone mentioned they had problems when exporting/burning right to dvd from iMovieHD. They said they exported out, then dragged the file into iDVD.. is that an option - if so, how would I go about doing that?

  • Video Capture Resolutions

    Anyone knows what is the video capture resolution from a FX5200 VTD128 ??
    Thanks

    it is depends on you video capture program but many of programs can capture up to 768*576 with 10000 buffer ( it is the resoloution of dvds)
    thanks

  • JMF and supported capture resolution

    Hello
    I have got 1.3 mpx webcam and try to use it with JMF to capture video. The problem is that JMfRegistry and JMFStudio, not mentioning my own code, can't detect capture resolution higher than 640x480. Does JMF supports higher resolutions? or do I need to use other technology to access camera?

  • [GeForce4 MX] Video capture resolution for G4MX440-VTD8X ???

    I would like to know some specs for my G4MX440-VTD8X card that I havent seen published anywhere online or in the manual.  I'm planning to do some video capture with this card and I want to know what is the NATIVE capture resolution of the card's hardware.  I understand that some software that can be used to capture the video allows selecting various capture resolutions for the MPEG2 format (ie 720x480).  But I also read that it is always preferable to select the capture resolution that matches the capture device's native resolution.
    Also, what is the best software to use for capturing video WITH THIS SPECIFIC graphics card product?

    Thanks for the pointer to the list of TV standards. I have tried PAL-I, PAL-M, G, D, all flavors.
    Here is what I have discovered so far:
    I connected up my multistandard TV. I set up view for NTSC, the TV displays this ok, so next I changed to PAL format (tried all flavors). The TV could display the image but it was horribly unstable (flickering, vertically). So using Nview I selected screen 2, then 'change resolution' .. I noticed a couple of things ..
    1. The resolution was fixed at 1024x768
    2. The screen frequency was fixed at 60hz
    Q1/ Does the resolution matter? How do I adjust if for the TV out port?
    Q2/ Isn't PAL refresh rate supposed to be 50 hz? If so, how do I change this in Nview?
    BTW my TV will accept:
    Television system: B/G,I,D/K,M
    Color system: PAL, PAL 60, SECAM, NTSC4.43, NTSC3.58
    So, I am pretty confident that if my card is putting out a television compliant signal my TV will be able to display it ok.
    Interesting to note that my TV will accept PAL 60. If that is PAL @ 60hz then perhaps this refresh rate (60hz according to Nview) is not the problem.
    thanks,

  • URGENT - Screen Capture Video Quality

    Hi,
    I need to create a movie for a client that shows the computer system that was developed for them.  The system is a web application and is accessed using Internet Explorer.  I need to be able to put the movie onto a dvd for viewing at various client locations.
    I created a number of screen capture videos using Snagit 9 showing the user experience in Internet Explorer.  I took these with my screen resolution at 1440x900 and, when I put them into my Premiere Elements project that is setup as a NTSC DV format, the video quality is unreadable.  I have tried to use several tools to compress the video to a size that is lower than the 720x480 resolution of my NTSC DV format Premiere project and the files themselves look great when I view them using Windows Media player.  However, when I add the files to Adobe Premiere they become extremely blurry regardless of whether I've scaled the video or not.  I have tried different aspect ratios in the Interpret Footage and have even removed the scale to frame option.
    Does anyone have any idea what I am doing wrong or how I can fix this problem?  I need to have this video completed for tomorrow evening and am stuck with the illegible screen capture videos.  Please help.
    Thanks,
    Scot

    Burn your project to DVD (or first to a folder then onto DVD) and see how it looks on a standalone DVD player. It may be a problem with your screen resolutions v native resolutions, or a lack of preview rendering (is there a red line above your timeline - if so press enter).
    On top of this you have the absolute problem that your are asking PRE to reduce from a 1440 x 900 screen resolution to a 720x480 DVD format. How well it does this you'll really only see by burning a DVD - but if it doesn't look good enough  you might consider using a 800 x 600 screen resolution to record your screen captures and reduce the amount of downscaling PRE does.
    Which Snagit Export format did you use to import to PRE? What other export formats are available?
    Cheers,

  • Best screen capture resolution for FCP

    I'm making some tutorials of various computer software.
    I'm going to edit them with FCP.
    I'm using the MAC built in SHIFT-COMMAND - 3 or 4
    in order to snap stills off my screen, and then
    import into Final Cut Pro to edit the tutorials with.
    The stills, once in the timeline, look pretty fuzzy and
    unuseable.
    What have others used in terms of resolution, format and such in order to end up with captures off your screen that you'll bring into FCP that end up looking good if you're
    going to end up going to video or DVD?
    I also have SNAP PRO X to work with, but I still haven't
    found the right format or resolution to get around this problem.
    Any input would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Without going into DPI (which is really meaningless in FCP land...as has been argued again and again and again...although if you MUST apply a value just stick in 72, but really it has no effect) the pixel dimensions of stills to import for FCP FULL FRAME are 720x534. Because stills have square pixels and FCP uses rectangular ones. If you want to do any movement on the stills, just increase the dimensions PROPORTIONALLY. 2x would be 1440 x 1064.

    DV footage requires large amounts of data and many computations. In order to maintain frame rate and be viewable at a normal size, only about one-fourth of the DV data is used in displaying the movie to the screen. However, the DV footage is still at full quality, and is best viewed thru a TV or NTSC monitor routed thru your camera or deck.

  • How to Capture High Quality Picture in Flex using webcam

    Hi All,
       We need to use the built-in webcam to caputre the high quality still image. However, seems the webcam is set to video capture mode by default. The built-in cam is 1.3 mega pixel or 2.0 mega pixel, however, the resolution of still image caputured is quite low, around 0.3 mega only.
    Anyone knows how to utilize the web cam to capature the high quality image in Flex?
    Thanks a lot!

    It is hard to believe that I've figured the whole thing out and accomplished my goal - while it being my first dip in flex & actionscript.

  • Tape or Live Capture? Quality Difference?

    I have never captured live footage direct from camera to computer. I have an opportunity to do so tomorrow on a 2-camera shoot. I have questions:
    1) Is it possible to capture 2 firewire streams simultaneously in OnLocation or with some other program?
    2) Is there a quality difference between live capture from an HDV camcorder and from a tape?
    3) I have a Matrox MX02 Mini with which I can capture a stream via component HD. How does this compare quality-wise to HDV?
    It is a long event - a bodybuilding contest (about 4 hours)  I would love to save time not having to capture from tape afterwards, but wondering if the setup is worth it. I do not have a laptop, so I would bring my editing computer to the gig.

    Hi(Bonjour)!
    If you shooted in DV format (standard resolution) monitor your footage on a Standard tv monitor, not on a HD one.
    Did you shoot with extended play activated ?

  • How to change the capture resolution of CaptureDevice and toggle between front and rear camera

    Hi. I'm using Visual Studio 2013, and the Windows Phone App template. I'm using the Microsoft.Devices / CaptureVideo API to capture video. I now want to set the resolution to capture the video in a specific(available) resolution. How do I do that?
    Code snippet reference to API:
    CaptureVideo vcDevice = CaptureDeviceConfiguration.GetDefaultVideoCaptureDevice();
    and I also want to put a button there to toggle between front and rear camera. If I click the button, and the rear camera is currently active, the front camera must become active and vice versa. How do I do that with this API?
    Thank you.

  • C7 captured image quality

    i got a c7 like a month back everything is perfect but one thing is out of my understanding when i open my camera there are no lines but as i take the pictures without flash  i get lines on my captured images although there is sufficient light in the room resulting in a poor capture quality.   i have changes many settings only this issue ends if i switch to night mode even in normally lighted room
    when ever i take a picture in sunlight or open  areas there are no lines at all but at times there are exceptions.. 
    i realy look forward to ur fuidance ppl 

    Hmm, that is odd. Looks like the phone could be faulty. First I would tell you to try updating or reinstalling firmware. You also did not mention if you were already using Symbian Anna update which came with camera tweaks. If it does not solve, you'd have to take it to a Nokia Care Center.
    Here's a sample c7 picture
