Images to AVI

[Daslee]

Hello, im trying to make images to avi maker, now i watched this thread: http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?t=395812 And i downloaded that avilib and imported, so now im trying to use this code:

Dim fr As UInt32 'set up a uint32 for frame rate
        fr = Convert.ToUInt32(60) 'set frame rate (from a constant in this case)
        Dim AW As AviWriter = New AviWriter
        Dim BM As Bitmap
        BM = AW.Open("replay.avi", fr, pbField.Width, pbField.Height)
        Dim canvas As Graphics = Graphics.FromImage(BM)
        '// THEN WRITE TO THE AVI FILE
        For i = 0 To 4 'loop through writing each frame one at a time 
            BM = Image.FromFile("C:\Stopmo\1.bmp")
            BM = Image.FromFile("C:\Stopmo\2.bmp")
            canvas.Clear(Color.White) 'clear the canvas
            ' THEN DRAW SHAPES ON TO THE CANVAS (using standard GDI+ code e.g. canvas.FillRectangle(...) etc.) 
            ' I think you could also use BM = BM.FromFile(filename) to load bitmaps one at a time from the hard drive
            AW.AddFrame() 'add the bitmap (BM) to the AVI file
        Next
        AW.Close()

On form load. So now when i run my program, then it just makes replay.avi file and there is just white background for 1 second, and why it doesn't adds my image: BM = Image.FromFile("C:\Stopmo\1.bmp") ?

BM = Image.FromFile("C:\Stopmo\1.bmp")
BM = Image.FromFile("C:\Stopmo\2.bmp")
AW.AddFrame() 'add the bitmap (BM) to the AVI file

In this case you overwrite 1.bmp.

[Daslee]

In this case you overwrite 1.bmp.

So that will replaces 1.bmp with 2.bmp?

[namrekka]

Did you name the bitmap files:
1.bmp
2.bmp
3.bmp
.
.
.
n.bmp

[Daslee]

Yes and they are in C:\Stopmo folder

[Daslee]

Don't i need to make canvas.DrawImage(...) Because in video are black background and i think its from canvas.clear(color.white) so i think i should to do canvas.DrawImage(...) But i don't know how to code it..

So no more answers? ;/

Hmmm...

I must admit I have no experience with this Avifil32, but have some remarks.

You can see a video stream as a certain amounts of frames in a certain time. In this case you defined 60 frames/second. That means if you want to have a bitmap shown for 1 second, 60 frames must be added with the same bitmap.

Its not clear for me how long a certain bitmap must be shown in this case. I'm also not sure if every bitmap must be in a frame now after explaining this.

Please define this first more clearly. Also I'm not a code provider but I can give you advise and point you in the right directions.

So i need to make like 2 frames/second and add BM = image.fromfile(image) and again BM = image.fromfile(image) ?

Pff.. F**k that ffmpeg last **** i don't know how to install, but if i get that ffmpeg.exe, then my program process.start(blabla...) doesn't work with that ffmpeg, it just runs and closes that ffmpeg, so...
