BasicVideo is small low cost subset of the more powerful VideoLab package. BasicVideo is designed for developing only video capture and playback applications, and has no video processing, mixing, or broadcasting functionality included.

BasicVideo supports both the old fashion Win32 API (VFW), Audio ACM and DirectShow (DirectX), and even allows if needed any mixture of them. The developer can choose to go with any of them, to use both, or can switch from the one to the other at any moment. The components hide the complexity of both approaches, and make them look almost identical from the users prospective.

Now you can create video capture and playback applications in seconds, with zero lines of code.

The Datastead RTSP/RTMP/HTTP/URL DirectShow Source Filter decodes audio and video from streaming sources, exposes the uncompressed audio and video pins, and can at the same time save the H264/AAC streams to MP4, FLV, MOV, AVI or MKV files without transcoding.

The filter is also able to generate new files on the fly without gap.

It does not require additional codecs

The package include Delphi sample code based on DSPack

Per-developer license, no runtime fees.

• Support both VCL Win32 and FireMonkey Win32/OSX32
• New component FXPlayer can work under Windows without SDL
• All components except FFPlayer can work under both Windows and Mac OS X Lion

• Support Frame Input (Bitmap canvas, Bitmap data, Bitmap DeviceContext, YUV).
• Support Frame Output (RGB, MJPEG, H.263, H.264, YUV).
• Support Packet Input (H.263, H.264, MJPEG, M4V, MPEGVideo, VC1).
• Support Screen Capture.
• Support Wave Capture.

• OnAudioHook event is a very easy way to edit all input audio samples acting as internal Audio Hook.

Features at a glance:

• Load Flash movies from any TStream descendant (TResourceStream, TMemoryStream, etc.)
• Create Flash-enabled applications which are ready to work even when Flash Player ActiveX is not installed.
• Flash Transparency is fully supported.
• Ability to play Flash Video (FLV) from stream.
• Enable/disable flash sounds 6. Get a snap image of the current flash movie frame.
• Write code which is compatible with any version of Flash (3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10).

For example, you can put one or more Flash movies in the resource section of your application and then load it from the exe. That's the portability and power of TFlashPlayerControl.

By default, the component will use the swflash.ocx/flash.ocx that's already installed on the system. The component can alternatively use any swflash.ocx/flash.ocx that you provide it with using any supported source. Using this method, your application will work even if Flash Player ActiveX doesn't exist on the target system. With TFlashPlayerControl, hassling with Flash Player ActiveX installation issues is a thing the past.

Demos, complete with source code, are provided. One of the problem with Flash programming is that you have to control what version of Flash you are using. For example, the property "Stacking" exists only in Flash 5 but doesn't exist in later revisions. TFlashPlayerControl automatically detects which Flash version is being used and prevents failure if access to nonexistent properties or methods is attempted.

TVideoGrabber is a video capture / media player component for developers working with C#, VB, C++, Delphi 32/64 bit, C++Builder, and ActiveX-compatible development tools. Powerful and simple to use, TVideoGrabber will help you to save time, money and effort to include video and/or audio capabilities in your project.

You can capture and record video and audio streams from most of the video capture devices, IP cameras, screen, as well as from images used as video source. You can compress by using popular software encoders like H264, XVid, DivX,... as well as hardware encoders like the Logitech C920 (H264), Sensoray 2250S...

TVideoGrabber is also an advanced media player that lets you play audio/video clips at their normal speed, faster, slower, forward and backward, one by one or with a playlist.

You can capture frames, perform PIP video from another TVideoGrabber component, graphic and text overlays during preview, recording or playback, apply video processings like rotation, cropping, and much more.

VisionLab also includes video capturing components based on both Video For Windows (VFW), and DirectShow, so no additional components are needed in order to start building motion detection applications.

The library is fully multithreaded, utilizes well modern multi-core systems, and runs at full native performance.

VisionLab contains:

• Video Capture - captures analog or digital video sources like FireWire (IEEE1394) cameras, DV camcorders, USB web cams, IP cameras, TV cards, PCI composite cards, USB devices, with or without audio.
• Video Recorders - Records in compressed or uncompressed AVI.
• Video Players - Play compressed or uncompressed AVI, WMV files or IP streams.
• Image Generators - images from bitmaps.
• Video Layers - Applies video layers over the video frames.
• Timing components - Clocks and Watchdog Timers.
• Video Filters - Noise reduction filters, crop, and resize components.
• Motion Detector - Detects motion in the video.
• Adaptive threshold - Performs Adaptive threshold algorithm for edge detection.
• Canny - Performs Canny algorithm for edge detection.
• Hough Lines - Finds lines in the image using Canny edge detection and Hough transform.
• Probable Lines - Finds probable line segments in the image using Canny edge detection and Hough transform.
• Hough Circles - Finds circles in the image using Hough transform.
• Contour detection - Finds contours in binary image.
• Find Targets - Finds possible targets in the image. The targets are detected as strong corners in the image. The targets then can be tracked by the Track Targets component.
• Track Targets - Tracks moving targets on the image. The targets are tracked as strong corners in the image.
• Extract Robust Features - Extracts robust features using SURF algorithm.
• Haar Detect Objects - Detects objects by using Haar like features.
• Label Connected Components - Labels connected components in the image.

• Motion detection - Create security systems with motion detection, or activate the video recording when motion is detected.
• Detect objects - Detect objects with different shapes in the video.
• Face Detect and recognition - Detect and/or recognize faces in images or video.
• Fingerprint compare - Process and compare fingerprint in image or video.
• Find and Track Targets - Find and track objects in the video.

WireCapture does all the work with DirectShow routine, you just use simple interface. You can add video capture functions to your application with just 5 lines of code.

This component is based on COM (Component Object Model).

You can create your own media player with a few lines of code or include almost any kind of media-video to your application in an easy way.

Based on the original code from the MPUI project of Martin J. Fiedler and also is included a free player project in the demo folder.
