save eY8 - monochrome

[Unregistered]

In the Visual C++ Demo, DemoApp i will save 265-greylevel-bmp-images (as 8bit), with a Sony X900-firewire-camera (filesize 787510 byte).

I changed in the file Mainfrm.cpp:

m_Grabber.setSinktype( FrameGrabbersink( FrameGrabberSink:: tFrameGrabberMode::eSNAP ) );

to

m_Grabber.setSinktype( FrameGrabbersink( FrameGrabberSink:: tFrameGrabberMode::eSNAP, eY8 ) );

the saved bmp-file are three channels with this code (filesize 2.359.350 Bytes), What I´m doing wrong. Who is the error?

Hi Frank,

move the line

m_Grabber.setSinktype( FrameGrabbersink( FrameGrabberSink:: tFrameGrabberMode::eSNAP, eY8 ) );

downwards to
if ( m_CurrentVideoCaptureDevice != "" )
{
m_Grabber.openDev( m_CurrentVideoCaptureDevice );
m_Grabber.setSinkType( DShowLib::FrameGrabberSink(
DShowLib::FrameGrabberSink::tFrameGrabberMode::eSN AP,
DShowLib::eY8 ));

Then the sinktypformat will stored in the grabber object.

Best regards
Stefan
