Detailed Description

This class uses the ImageMagick library to write image files (including animated GIFs)

All image formats supported by ImageMagick are supported by this class.

// Create a reader for a video
FFmpegReader r("MyAwesomeVideo.webm");
r.Open(); // Open the reader
// Create a writer (which will create an animated GIF file)
ImageWriter w("/home/jonathan/NewAnimation.gif");
// Set the image output settings (format, fps, width, height, quality, loops, combine)
w.SetVideoOptions("GIF", r.info.fps, r.info.width, r.info.height, 70, 1, true);
// Open the writer
w.Open();
// Write the 1st 30 frames from the reader
w.WriteFrame(&r, 1, 30);
// Close the reader & writer
w.Close();
r.Close();

◆ GetCacheSize()

int openshot::ImageWriter::GetCacheSize ( )
inline

Get the cache size.

Definition at line 84 of file ImageWriter.h.

◆ IsOpen()

bool openshot::ImageWriter::IsOpen ( )
inlinevirtual

Determine if writer is open or closed.

Implements openshot::WriterBase.

Definition at line 87 of file ImageWriter.h.

◆ Open()

void ImageWriter::Open ( )
virtual

widthWidth in pixels of image
heightHeight in pixels of image
qualityQuality of image (0 to 100, 70 is default)
loopsNumber of times to repeat the image (used on certain multi-frame image formats, such as GIF)
combineCombine frames into a single image (if possible), or save each frame as its own image

Definition at line 36 of file ImageWriter.cpp.

◆ WriteFrame() [1/2]

void ImageWriter::WriteFrame ( ReaderBase reader,
int64_t  start,
