Publisher review:VCAPG2 is DirectShow based video capture DLL that support various types of video capture cards. VCAPG2 is a new version of MATLAB resident video capture program which employs Microsoft's DirectShow libraries rather than the older Video for Windows (VfW) library.In order to run VCAPG2, you will need to install the DirectX runtime libraries.This code has been developed and tested with DirectX 8.1 and 9.0. with MATLAB6.1/6.5.
Features are1. Up to 6 video capture cards can grab images at one command.(I tested one and two video capture cards)2. Supported video capture devices are including IEEE1394 based DV CAM, USB Camera as well as old VFW based Camera.(I tested DV-CAM, USB Camera, VFW based Camera)3. VCAPG2 can run up to almost twice as fast as VfW based program such as VCAPG [1]
Supported default capture color mode only RGB 16bit. However depending on video capture card, you may change different color modes by clicking task tray icon.
VCAPG2 is a MATLAB residents program; you can confirm residents or not left bottom side of task tray icon. From task tray icon, you can change video mode and crossbar and/or TV tuner mode, which are depending on installed video capture cards.
If you want to remove VCAPG2 from MATLAB, type clear all. Requirements: · MATLAB Release: R13 · Image Processing Toolbox
