uEye .NET Manual 4.97

The Video class provides methods for saving captured images in an AVI file. Images are added automatically by Capture(). All settings have to be done before starting the video with Start(). To reduce the file size, the single frames are stored in the AVI container using an adjustable JPEG compression.

In contrast to the uEye.Tools.Video class the uEye.Camera.Video class can be used more automatically. It can only be used with the DIB display mode.
