Hi ,
I’m trying to use OpenCV to write a video file. I have a simple program that loads frames from a video file then accepts to save them
At first the cvCreateVideoWrite always return NULL. I got a answer from your group saying it returns separate images and to try to change the file name to test0001.png, this worked.
But now the cvWriteFrame function always fails, the code is
CString path;
path="d:\\mice\\Test_Day26_2.avi";
CvCapture* capture = cvCaptureFromAVI(path);
IplImage* img = 0;
CvVideoWriter *writer = 0;
int isColor = 1;
int fps = 25; // or 30
int frameW = 640; // 744 for firewire cameras
int frameH = 480; // 480 for firewire cameras
writer=cvCreateVideoWriter("d:\\mice\\test0001.png",CV_FOURCC('P','I','M','1'),
fps,cvSize(frameW,frameH),isColor);
if (writer==0)
MessageBox("could not open writter");
int nFrames = 50;
for(int i=0;i<nFrames;i++){
if (!cvGrabFrame(capture))
MessageBox("could not grab frame");
img=cvRetrieveFrame(capture); // retrieve the captured frame
if (img==0)
MessageBox("could not retrive data");
if (!cvWriteFrame(writer,img) )
MessageBox("could not write frame");
}
cvReleaseVideoWriter(&writer);
Any help would be GREAT
