How to capture a PAL video?

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hi,


I'm tyring to capture a PAL video.

But the video looks like a NTSC video.

Do I need to set any specific parameter to capture a PAL video?

When I call capDlgVideoSource(m_hWndVideo); I have an option for NTSC and
PAL to select a video standard.

Can I set the video standard with out calling the
capDlgVideoSource(m_hWndVideo); ?

Please find my source code below .

HWND m_hWndVideo ;

CAPDRIVERCAPS m_VideoDeviceCaps;



m_hWndVideo = capCreateCaptureWindow(

"Video" , // window name if pop-up

WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE, // window style

0, 0, 160, 120, // window position and dimensions

*this,

0 );


if (m_hWndVideo == NULL)

{

return false;

}


BOOL fRet = capDriverConnect(m_hWndVideo, 0);


fRet = capDriverGetCaps( m_hWndVideo, &m_VideoDeviceCaps,
sizeof(m_VideoDeviceCaps)) ;


CAPSTATUS capstatus;

fRet = capGetStatus( m_hWndVideo, &capstatus, sizeof(capstatus));


fRet = capPreviewScale( m_hWndVideo, TRUE ); // allow this to stretch ?

fRet = capPreviewRate( m_hWndVideo, 250); // frame rate in MS

fRet = capPreview(m_hWndVideo, TRUE );



Pls help me.

It is blocking my progress.



Regards,
Balupu
