This is not really practical – just some fun stuff and attempt to make use of a readily available code snippet. So… reference signal in Unity 3D game engine through Media Foundation and Direct3D 11. It is basically Low-Level Native Plugin example project (limited to Direct3D 11 and Visual Studio 2015), which works together with…
An update for Reference signal source for DirectShow DLLs: the source is doing more accurately RGB subtypes and allows specification whether you want MEDIASUBSTYPE_RGB32 or MEDIASUBSTYPE_ARGB32 additionally the DLL implements Microsoft Media Foundation Media Source for the video stream A more detailed description follows. RGB32 and ARGB32 are very close and share the same byte…
There is an intersting submission for video capture device capabilities for “The Short-Range Intel® RealSenseâ„¢ Camera F200” camera. Another blog user earlier mentioned they have a good stock of the devices with plans to take advantage of new technology. It sounds like the new cameras offer new opportunities for application in user interaction, in ability…
(this is a re-post from StackOverflow) Virtual webcam is typically a software only implementation that application discover as if it is a device with physical representation. The mentioned applications use APIs to work with web cameras and ability to extend the APIs and add your own video source is the way to create a virtual…
H.264 (MPEG-4 Part 10 also known as MPEG-4 AVC) video encoding was never packaged into DirectShow filter by Microsoft and instead they offered Media Foundation Transform (MFT) for the job: H.264 Video Encoder. Further development gave us third party video encoders also packaged as MFTs. Hardware backed MFTs became a part of video hardware drivers…
As I mentioned in earlier post, Media Foundation video capture capability is internally using undocumented categories with pretty much the same transforms and enumeration applicable to categories documented. Without documenting it as public contract, MFEnumDeviceSources enumerates transforms, builds standard implementation for IMFMediaSource on top of available transform and… voila! Media Foundation offers “lightweight” API for…
