Remarks

The class allows to write AVI files using Video for Windows API.

Sample usage:

Copy

// instantiate AVI writer, use WMV3 codec
AVIWriter writer = new AVIWriter( "wmv3" );
// create new AVI file and open it
writer.Open( "test.avi", 320, 240 );
// create frame image
Bitmap image = new Bitmap( 320, 240 );

for ( int i = 0; i < 240; i++ )
{
    // update image
    image.SetPixel( i, i, Color.Red );
    // add the image as a new frame of video file
    writer.AddFrame( image );
}
writer.Close( );
