Live Firewire Viewer for Win32?

[Guest]

Archived from groups: rec.video.desktop (More info?)

I am looking for a cheap app that will take a DV feed via Firewire and
display it full screen or at any scale on a VGA monitor. I have done a
little searching but haven't found a good solution. I am going to go off and
write one but if anyone has any ideas please post them.

thanks

Graphedit will do it....
I think many of the samples in the DX SDK will do it also..
All free...

Yeah.. I looked at dvApp.cpp I'll need to tweak it to get full screen
though.. I am not DX9 savvy yet.

I will check out graphedit..

thanks.

Graphedit looks like an incredible tool for testing filters prior to writing
code.. Looks like it will help me inderstand DX better also..

I have a question though.. The version I downloaded, build 011008, will only
allow me to select PAL resolution/frame rate for the DV VID OUT pin of the
"Microsoft DV Camera and VCR " filter.. Can you offer any insight?

thanks for the response. .

ok.. I got the latest.. And made sure that I had DX9.0c ... Graphedit sort
of works.. but I can't change the framerate of the capture filter.... it's
odd.. seems to always think it is pal.

I have only worked with PAL cameras (living an PAL-land) so I have no
experience with NTSC DV input.

Also, I have to admit that Graphedit will not give "true" fullscreen.
You can maximize its form, but there will still be the borders....

Thanks though. It forced me to take a look at the DX SDK and the tools
available. Graphedit source code would be handy though!
