Can you guide me to an example that provides the ability to extract snaphots or video at a specific date/time?
If extracting video the answer might be exporting. See the Export sample.
Working with snapshots there is more options to mention:
The ImageViewerControl has a GetCurrentDisplayedImageAsBitmap () so if you are working with the ImageViewerControl this is probably the best choice. See the Video Preview plugin sample.
The JpegVideoSource will in general give you each image in JPEG format, so it is easy the use the images and save a snapshot etc. See the Smart Client Video Replay plugin sample.
There might be other samples that would fit better depending on the details of what you want to achieve. You are welcome to tell more…
Thank you, want to create a method to extract snapshots from specified camera on a particular date/time. eg jpgeg[] jpegs = getimages(guid[] camid,datetime snapshotdate)
I believe there is a perfect fit with -
MIP Environment: VideoOS.Platform.Data.JPEGVideoSource Class Reference
override List VideoOS.Platform.Data.JPEGVideoSource.Get(DateTime dateTime,
TimeSpan maxTimeAfter,
int maxCountAfter
)[inline, virtual]
Get a list of JPEGs from the time specified and limited as specified.
Parameters:
dateTime DateTime of first JPEG
maxTimeAfter Max TimeSpan to look for images
maxCountAfter Max number of images to return
Returns:
Implements VideoOS.Platform.Data.VideoSource.
Perfect is the right answer! Thanks
