Capture frames from a movie

[Juan Carlos]

I'm working in an easy tool to capture frames from a movie, the problem that I have saw is that with GetFrame only you can capture a frame when you star the movie no with the movie playing that this is my objetive, some idea how make captures of movie frames from a playing movie?

It's not possible to capture frames from a playing video file. However, you could just open another instance of the video using OpenVideo() and then play video 1 and capture frames from video 2.

Humm, In this case Andreas the Amiga system are overload and with machines of 1GHz or less the frame capture cans to be very slow and in some case a nightmare with continue crasheds for example in the Sams, if today with update 6 the playing videos with Hollywood(for example with V.A.M.P.) produces crasheds.

If you experience crashes, please abstract the code and provide a very small example that demonstrates the issue. Then I can have a look at it.

Here I send you the link to the snapshot with the GrimpReaper from AmigaOS4:

Sorry the messages are in spanish, sometimes the message said me error the Hollywood server, but only this problem happen in OS4 no in MorphOS or Windows.

GrimReaper output doesn't help, I'd need a very small abstracted example script that shows the issue.

Hum, it is very easy only with open video and play for example a wmv or mp4 file the program or example under OS4 crashed, when in MorphOS no, for example with V.A.M.P.

Well, then just prepare a very small example script and provide the video file so that I can check the issue.
