I'd like to overlay a number of images (PNG, same size for all, with transparency). So far, my code is as follows.
[Code]...
Now, I would like to overlay one more image, but this is based on a user's input from a textbox. So, to get that image, we need to take the user's input, and get the respective resource file. I do it as follows:
[Code]...
The overlay works correctly. So question is: Why is the overlay not working from the stream? Edit: It turns out that the overlay does actually work, but seems to overlay an enlarged image rather than the true size. Would there be any reason for this?
There is an IP web camera that I wrote a .NET class for sometime ago. It's basically a Timer implementation that pings a snapshot CGI script from the camera every five seconds. The camera itself is very rudamentary; it does not have any sort of API for me to work with, the only thing I can do programmatically (remotely) is invoke this script. The script returns a 640x480 JPEG image. Simple.
Now what I need to be able to do is take a days worth of these images, and create a "time lapse" AVI video stream out of it that will eventually be embedded into a web page. How can I do this with VB.NET?
I noticed when I send bitmap over a stream I have to close the stream where I sent it from in order to get it on the other end. Is there any way I can keep the stream open and send images and strings, or any other way of doing that? [code] 'I have to close the stream or it wont work, but I need to keep it open to send more images!
I have a program (attemping) to stream images in an mjpeg steam over the internet. I cannot get Windows Media Player or Firefox to display the stream. Firefox asks to download a file with a type of application/octlet stream.
I have a vb.net application. I want to overlay my application over a DirectX game. When the user presses a hotkey the window is displayed and when the window is overlayed ontop of the game. I want it fully interactable. How can I do this in vb.net?
Trying to start a game that involve in a lot of .png and animation. All these .png are already transparent and set to an individual picture box when i overlay one over the other. There "transparency" actually gets the form background color. and not i'm not able to see through the image behind it.
i set the forecolor to transparent in the attribute am i missing something?

how to Draw text directly to the screen - effectively overlapping anything underneath it - but have it out side a form area! I would really like to have no user interface at all if possible I know what I wanted after recently using FRAPs.
in an winForm app in VS2010 win 7 compiling to x86, I try to do what Alvas.Audio seems to work. See (c# ex: [URL] for reference.
Dim data() As Byte = wr.ReadData(second * i, second)
The result give me data.length()=0. I do not have any exception, I can read format from it and whatever reader I use I got this problem.EDIT : After some tests, it seems like the uncompressed file I create in the first step (in PCM format, with .wav extension) can not be recognized by the Alvas.audio library for the second step. I must miss something around Audio file markups or something alike.
Here is the code that might be the source (basically this is step 1):
Dim functOut As String = String.Empty Dim wr As Alvas.Audio.IAudioReader = Nothing Dim fs As IO.FileStream = Nothing

How can I write the resulted stream to be sure I can read it again later?
Im making a desktop player for a online web radio, and for the program I wanna make it show all the stream info. Like the stream name, and such. However I dont know how to do this? I looked everywhere
The server url is setup like this "[URL]" And it has all the stream info and that there. So is there a way I can get the info from there onto like say a label? Live updates btw.
I have a problem with the cryptostream, if i write the stream to a memorystream the memory that the stream used is still alocated and i have no way of unalocating it.what am i missingdoing wrong? im using-using on the streams,readers and crypto stuffs so the framework should shut them all down right? i tryed calling .close and .dispose but nothing ,in fact i moved it all over I have provided the sub that im using for the encrytion im in .net 4.5 so there is a lil async stuff but i know thats not the problem coz i moved this code out of my main app(.net 4) for testing to see if i could fix the problem.[code...]
The idea is to scan a folder of images and then let the user navigate back and forth through the images using a couple of buttons.The problem is, I can only get it to return a single image, and not the whole lot. It's looks to me as though the images are getting assigned to the same index in the array. [code]
What type of connector do i need to actually save the Map data like point of the images (x,y coordinate) into the database . and then retrieve it to show on the page in asp.net and how do i go about doing it.
The app i am working on is for creating theme for the iPod touch... It has to deal with LOTS of images (100's potentially) There will be the set of default images, and then the user created replacement images. I started loading all the defaults into a resx file... thinking then I could just pull them out. now that I started setting the default, this sucks! lol the app will do this, on load it will set all the images (variables) to the resx images then when a theme is loaded, it will replace the default with the user image (if the user img exists) otherwise, the default stays. Then the "screen" is drawn to show the user. so, here is just the images to build the wallpaper, dock, and status bar...
I was thinking to make an app to save images [or download images] to local hard disk. But to keep it easy, I want this app to create a small picturebox on form to show the thumbnail of downloaded image. Lets say a 5 pictureboxes has to be added with the thumbnails to show the recent downloads. A user can save the location where he wants to save the files on hard disk. A listbox or a dropdown menu will help in categorizing the images, like image1 in friends section, image2 in family section, image3 in others, etc... When the program restarts all the latest 5 thumbnails has to be loaded in pictureboxes and the directory that was chosen. Finally, a button that shows the downloaded images into original image file size one by one or a slide show. Is it possible to make such program?
I am developing a visual basic 2008 express edtion program of an organisation that should get images from the system and display on image/picture box. further the program should save the displayed image in access database so that it can be retrieved together when you want to search the information about that particular employee.
I need this for my program. There is "add images" button where you can load multiple images and those images should be show on listview after loading.I have been trying to make this but could not get it work.
I have a program that will get a hash of the image but the problem is that I have to do to manually.I have a set of images of a folder names images(C:/images/) and ill be choosing which of those images i want to upload to my database.So far I got my program to work with database and such, wat I need is, if its possible I but the folder path on OpenFileDialog and I was a image to show in Picturebox1, then if I press button1 it will go to next picture.
I have placed several PictureBox Images of different colored dots(which represent lights) on an image of a Christmas Tree. I can make the lights randomly flash using a randomGenerator and a Select case statement. However, the code is very long. There are 67 lights on this tree and the code is 71 pages long. There has to be an easier way to do this. So far I have tried the following with two images of lights just to see if it would work and it does not work:
I've been coding using vb.net for a while but I've been using imageLocation property to set an image for a picturebox or for the background image of a form. How do I use those images in my Resources Folder in my solution explorer to set an image for a certain picturebox or form. I sorta need a code for it.
I'm creating a form which is basically an image in a picture box that I use the graphics object to do drawstring's and drawimage's upon.I keep track of where I'm drawing these things so that I can click on them later and do various things (launch external apps - whatever).Is using a picturebox and the graphics object the best way to approach this.

I'm loading blobs out of a database as a byte array and I put them in a memory stream so that I can load them into an xmldocument for parsing.However there are blobs that have multiple root nodes, this causes the parser to blow up.My solution is to just make a new root node that encompasses the whole blob. I can add onto the end just fine with a streamwriter however I can't figure out how to add onto the beginning.How can I prepend to a stream?
Update:I was having too much trouble getting this to work. The "XML" I was extracting was not proper XML and I kept on having to add more and more regexes to remove bad XML before the XmlDocument Load. I ended up using the HtmlAgilityPack to parse out my valid sections of XML and I put those inside their own xml documents.
I'm writing a VB.net application (but you can answer in C# if you want, no problem) that uses a 3rd party .NET library. In particular, one method in this library takes an IO.Stream as input (among other things) and writes the results of its processing to said stream. My problem is that the method CLOSES the stream after writing to it, so I can't read back the data that it wrote in it!To be more specific: it works, of course, if the stream is a FIeStream , since it writes the data on disk, but what if I want to read the data directly to memory? I tried using a MemoryStream, but as I said, when the method returns the stream is already closed, and I can't read back anything from it.
Imports System.IO Public Class CloseHijackedMemoryStream Inherits MemoryStream
Dim request As WebRequest = HttpWebRequest.Create("http:www.mysite.com/") Dim response As WebResponse = request.GetResponse() Dim stream As Stream = response.GetResponseStream()
How can I get the html elements from it? (I DO NOT WANT TO USE WEBBROWSER CONTROL)
Then I will do something like...
