Using Webcam And Want To Record Video And Save It On Disk?
Jun 24, 2009
I am using webcam and want to record video and save it on disk, the video time must be constant for such 20 or 30 sec, what i want is to change CAPTUREPARMS members which contain fLimitEnabled & wTimeLimit
'---capcaptureget function
Function capCaptureGetSetup(ByVal hWnd As Integer, ByVal s As Long, ByVal wSize As Integer)
capCaptureGetSetup = SendMessage(hWnd, WM_CAP_SET_SEQUENCE_SETUP, wSize, s)
End Function
I have been working on capturing image and recording video in VB using webcam. From the cource code,I have successfully captured and saved images, however for the video part I have failed to save it in any selected directory. I've checked the code with some other sample codes in internet. Couldn't see any problem or differences. My code for recording and saving are as follow:
Recording:
SendMessage(hWnd, WM_CAP_SEQUENCE, 0, 0)
Saving:
Dim save As Integer save = MsgBox("Do you want to save your recording video", MsgBoxStyle.YesNo + MsgBoxStyle.Information, "Recording Video") If (save = MsgBoxResult.Yes) Then
I need a hint or sample source code is much better for my project. Here is the idea, I am creating a simple program that can record a video using a webcam as a surveillance camera. I need to record it continuous and every hour the capturde video will store/save to my drive. I am not that good in webcam/camera manipulation in vb.net.
currently, im using a webcam in my thesis. one of my objective is to have a realtime camera that can record/capture a video at the same time can capture image. i dont know how to code it in vb.net.
I have managed to record my webcam which saves to the desired location and is displaying to the screen while recording but i am trying to run other functions while the webcam video is being recorded but the rest of my form stops functioning until the recording is completed.
Is it possible to record and continue other functions at the same time
I am building an application in vb 2010 that uses wmp ocx to play videos from remote streaming servers. Is there a way to record or save that video simultaniously? Which technique should I use? I have searched a lot on this but unable to find solution yet. Do i need to use Directshow library?
I creat audio video chat and when calling receivng video and client video is together...I want that client move his or her webcam video where want...as I know it name DROP&DRAP but I`m not know how to do it...
I'm currently working on a project which is basically Server-Client based. Client is standalone VB executable file and Server is web based.The program is supposed to use webcam as video capture device, stream video footages to server (on website - live feed) and allows users to manually save captured videos into their computer.Thats basically the brief description of my system. I'm starting off working with VB right now and website after I'm done with VB.I'm new to VB, this would be my 1st project on it. I've looked for available sources online and found several VB apps which lets me capture image file through my webcam. Also on MSDN forum, i found recommendations on using "DCAM Server" to stream videos on website but I'm still not sure of how to configure the settings to make it work properly, and of course, don't have a proper website for it to work with yet atm. Also realise I'll need to integrate some .dll files or activeX functions to use video capture function. I don't really know how to use these yet rite now.
I have a little Logitech USB Webcam that I have attached to a laptop and I want to be able to view a video stream from it. I already gathered it will need to be a client/server model...and I probably need to use TCP/IP and/or Winsock (if its still even used)...
how to really approach this application as far as the video capture process? I don't have a need to really record video in any way so if i can just "preview" the video thats fine, although recording would be a neat bonus.
I read into the Windows Image Aquisition libraries and they seemed to be the right thing...but I wasn't so sure about the cross-network half of the equation.
I'm using a picturebox to display the video captured from my webcam. I tried out two codes:
1) [URL]
The code in this forum by kaymaf. it does not work at all! there is no video displayed at all. Also, i'm currently using a PixeLINK 1394 Camera to get the video, but this is not shown in the list of cameras. It shows : Microsoft WDM image Capture (Win 32). Are these the same?
2) [URL]
This code works the first time i run it. But the second time it gives me a listbox of camera to choose from and then does not display any video. The screenshot is as displayed:
I am interested in streaming video from a webcam on one PC to another PC. Could this be done without streaming to a server. Could this be achieved by streaming using P2P?

I have problem in recording video from webcam the video file not always appear in its specific path in the running time in addition there is so much delay to appear. 5 sec is the time of the video duration, I want to save the video when it start to load but in the same time it save the video show the video in the background which I have problem in this point too.
I am wondering how to save a textbox contents to disk?? Using the MSDN help I was able to come up with this code so far. I have a menu strip item labled "save as." when I click it the prompt to allow you to pick a location to save comes up and it will save a text file to the selected location but the .txt file is blank. How do I set this code so that it knows to save the contents of the textbox.

I have downloaded a program which is used to capture an image via the webcam on my laptop. That works fine. I added the required code to record and save the recorded video to an .avi file. The record function appears to be working fine. When I click on the Stop Record button the save file dialog appears and I enter in a file name to save the recorded video. But the message WM_CAP_FILE_SAVEAS does not appear to work as no file ever gets created in the location I choose (desktop).

I want webbrowser1 to navigate to a list of URLs that will be read in from a text file. (I left that part out of the below code and just manually entered urls as examples.) What I have found is that the webbrowser1 will navigate to the urls, but it will not stay long enough to get anything from them. In this example, not even the final page loaded ends up getting saved. Can someone tell me how to halt the attempt to save webbrowser1.documenttext until it is fully loaded?
