vvpn Posted February 10, 2011 Report Posted February 10, 2011 Hi I am using the regular IMAQ Write Frame.vi to save the video from a Basler camera. If I don't use any of the available compression modes the avi file size is becoming very large (10 sec aprox 150MB) with in a short period of time. If I use a compression and when playing it in a windows media player or any other player the frame rate is not the same. I attached the sample vi that I am using to record the video. Please let me know what can be done to reduce the size of the video file and be able play it with the same frame rate recorded using windows medial player. ThanksRecording Test.vi Quote
crelf Posted February 10, 2011 Report Posted February 10, 2011 You're almost there - the "IMAQ AVI Get Filter Names" that you've disabled will list all the compression technologies available to you - pick one of these and give it another go. Quote

ThanksRecording Test.vi Which frame rate value is stored in the AVI when compression is turned on? Also, the Grab VI is self pacing, so you probably don't need the wait in the top loop.
