[C++/Windows] Video Texture for Irrlicht (D3D,OpenGL)

[Ico]

Upon launch, the irrlicht window gets black and then goodbye program - windows error reporting...

At least I can hear the sound used in intro.avi.

The same happened when i used another color format. As I said there's actually color conversion for two formats, the other two use code from DX SDK sample, that doesn't work (somehow it's trying to write more memory than reserved). But all the other stuff seems to work now.

Hi vi-wer, great plugin. Downloading now. Would it be possible to display a webcam image with it?

[vi-wer]

Don't know. Should be possible.

But ... well, here's an other build:
http://files.filefront.com//;7604391;;/

This one is the last for now.
I'm convinced that it will work almost perfectly. ( If not you get your money back .)

If you experience crashes, your cpu is probably to slow .

I need some feedback, so please tell me that it works.

Hello,
Crash on my pc...So i can't test.
I think my processor is not to slow because it's a core 2 duo E6600 .
[edit]
Same problem has ico

[vi-wer]

Try this example:
http://files.filefront.com//;7628677;;/

It has 3 different dll files, just copy and paste them one by one into the right directory and run the example.
Tell me which one works (no crashes) so that I can finally make a working lib/example package.

If someone wishes I could add support for capture devices (webcam, dvcam, tv card,...). I just need enough requests or a good reason why I should make it.

here is an excelent reason: for learning purposes

[Ico]

All except "no_output" crash.

[vi-wer]

Here's a new example:
http://files.filefront.com//;7654366;;/

I've made some changes and added a lot of output data. If it chrashes you can tell me the last few lines from the console, so I can see where the problem is.

It also includes a preview example of the new capture device to texture ability (tested with tv card).
Actually it's using the first available capture device. To run the example first run your software and setup the device (e.g. for a tv card select a channel).

Thanks Ico.

I've made a new example for testing.
http://files.filefront.com//;7668283;;/

It's different and simpler than the previous one.
The main file is 'no_intro_example.exe' all others are for comparison only.

If you experience problems, try to use other video files. The video size should be a power of 2 (e.g. 128x128).

Cool lib but why is it only for noncommercial purposes?

[Athrun]

Hi,
I use irrlicht 1.4.1 ,
I use your lib with something wrong,
could you show the code Completely?
