I found the following script under the Example Scripts forum and left my query there. But it's been awhile since ppl have posted there, so I thought maybe the thread was dead and that I should post here.

MY QUERY IN THE EXAMPLE SCRIPTS FORUM:

Hi,

I'm new, so be gentle. I have been coming to this forum and using AutoIt for some time now and must say that I am quite impressed with both.

Now, with the back-slapping out of the way, I'd like to ask a question. The WebCam script posted here is really quite good and has opened some avenues for me. However, I am not a C++ programmer and am a bit lost in the whole workings of it. I am using a TV card instead of a cam with this script and I'd like to take the script and be able to change the actual resolution of the output, (to say 640 x 480 or 1024 x 768). Not change the scale, (which one could do on this line:

$cap = DllCall($avi, "int", "capCreateCaptureWindow", "str", "cap", "int", BitOR($WS_CHILD,$WS_VISIBLE), "int", 15, "int", 15, "int", 320, "int", 240, "hwnd", $Main, "int", 1) )

but the actual resolution.

Also, I'd like to be able to get/set the channel and get/set capture device info. Any help anyone could give me would be greatly appreciated.

I'd also like to point out that the recording side of this script didn't work with my TV card. I fixed this by changing the last line of the StopRecording() function from:

DllCall($user, "int", "SendMessage", "hWnd", $cap[0], "int", $WM_CAP_FILE_SAVEDIBA, "int", 0, "str", $moviefile)

to:

DllCall($user, "int", "SendMessage", "hWnd", $cap[0], "int", $WM_CAP_FILE_SAVEASA, "int", 0, "str", $moviefile)

if this is at all helpful to anyone.

Thanks in advance. (Should this have been posted in the General Support part of this forum or under this thread)? Hope to hear from anyone soon.

To clarify, I know that you can bring up a dialog and set these things manually, however I'd like to do it from the script. I hope someone can help me out. Thanks.
