NEW Video Capture with GPS OSD Overlay Data

**fixinstuff** · 10-22-2006, 12:56 PM

This would be an amazing addition to the CarPC! I know someone mentioned it but coordinates would be very useful. Maybe the option to turn the displays on/off. Ive been looking for something like this for a long time.

GREAT WORK!!!

Unfortunately, the development tools i have used are demo only. For me to then distribute the 'product' i would have to buy the full licence, which is around $150. This is what is holding me up at the moment, i have a good working base, but i will be unable to release until i can afford the funds to purchase the distributable OCX.

At present it displays time, date, co-ords and you can also watermark a custom bitmap image !

I'll keep you posted until it is released.

which OCX are you using?

Let's see $10 apiece takes 15 users, I'm game. And if it doesn't happen, no great loss.

Count me in. Let's get this ball rolling. We are grea community.
$10 bucks sounds good to me.

Thanks very much guys !!

What I will do is create a secure folder on my server where i will put the latest development release, that way those who have contributed can test the latest release etc and see how things are progressing.

I have a test version available at the moment which is raw, ie its not to pretty to look at (typical VB buttons etc) but in the next week or so I will tidy this up.

What i am willing to do is give access for 1 person to see how it is developing so they can independently feed this back. I am mindful there is an element of trust if you contribute, so i don't want to let you down !

If people would like to enter there names on this thread, when i am ready for the OCX to be purchased i will let you know.

Regards,

Steve

You can do this for free using the directshow SDK and VMR for overlaying your text on the video + encoding in realtime. There are quite a few VB examples since that seems to be what you are using for development.
