I need you to recommend me a library for c++ to use with visual c++ 2008 to perform an edition ef the frames from a video source before been rendered on the screen. I dont want to perform effects like blur or things like that, I want to change the size en some cases and other stuff.
I have tried with phonon (where I cant access the frames) and opencv (where I can get the frames but I cant display the audio because the library is for other purpose), I have been reading about directshow on windows but I still dont know if I can recover the frame.
Regards, Marco.
Try ffmpeg. It’s what OpenCV uses to read frames.
FFMPEG includes a simple player — ffplay. Have a look at its source for an idea of how to use the library.
