Thread: Preview: NMC Hardware Control

actually i've just got it all working and with a NMC skin

Only problem is i can't set the compression

have to use the windows dialog to use divx otherwise it's raw video and thats just HUGE

Least there is a 3bg limit on the file tho.

I'll release a demo soon for ppl to test in NMC or standalone

yeah and therefore I suggest you, to use 'VLC media player'!
You can make everything with that tool..

e.g. starting your webcam source through 'vlc command line options' as an external application in NMC.. hope netsuo will fix that cmd bug

a command like:

c:\vlc.exe dshow:// :dshow-vdev="PC Camera (6005 CIF)" :dshow-adev="Intel(r) integriertes Audio" :no-dshow-size="320x240" :dshow-config :no-dshow-tuner

note:the 'PC Camera (6005 CIF)' is the WDM driver name of my Webcam
looks like:


or you can simply start-transcoding/close vlc in background with NCS with every available decoder and bitrate on your machine, to capture the output in a file.. with options like:

c:\vlc.exe dshow:// :dshow-vdev="PC Camera (6005 CIF)" :dshow-adev="Intel(r) integriertes Audio" :dshow-size="320x240" :dshow-config :no-dshow-tuner :sout=#transcode{vcodec=mp4v,vb=1024,scale=1,acode c=mpga,ab=192,channels=2}:duplicate{dst=std{access =file,mux=ts,url="C:\output.mpg"}}

vlc is very simple and have guis to create that code above.

@netsuo, sorry to gone offtopic too but its kind a 'hardware control' too

Hi!

What codec did you use to make the video? I only get audio, no video.

Why not make a WindowsMedia file, it's smaler and needs no special codecs to play. http://www.microsoft.com/windows/win...r/default.aspx

No problems on offtopic !!

I'm very happy with your tests on NCS !! Give me mooooore


EDIT: i forgot to say that hardware control is up and running in my car

Is it skinable tho?

Right now my app looks like it's apart of NMC like my FD Skin

Is this possible?

My only problem is saving the AVI i might look into capturing the stream into some custom code to encode the avi with the codec i want.

If the above software is skinable then i'll take a look at it

Cool how much of your car is done carputer wise?

got pics

Yes it is skinable and I can even play movies in .rar, .zip, .bin, .cue... files.
I think it would be great idea to have a skin for this application.

Well maybe it was not a nice example but "vcodec=mp4v" is a container format for "NeroDigital, 3ivx, DivX, XviD or RealMPEG4" and depends on your system to be played.. Just use the gui of vlc and choose a real avi format..

And it´s nothing about to use WindowsMediaEncoder... But VLC´s feature is to be easy accessable and start complex function (e.g. in connection with NMC) by just ONE click!
