Grab Image from camera to cast member

[NROM]

I create xtra that connect to web camera and grab image into unsigned char*
buffer.
How can I load this buffer into cast member?
I tried to work with NewMediaInfo function but it didn?t work.
Please help me.

I'm using something like you need, with 3d, but i think is the same thing,
you need this script and the

"SharpExport Xtra"

on MouseUp

x = new(#bitmap)

nHeight = sprite(3).height

nWidth = sprite(3).width

n = image(nWidth, nHeight, 24)

n = (member("modelo2").image).duplicate()

x.image = n

put n


xtraInst = new (xtra "SharpExport")

result = xtraInst.exportJPG(member(24,1), "c\filename.jpg", 85)

put result

end MouseUp

I'm writing Xtra that grab image from camera and I want to push it into cast
member.
I try to use MoaDrMediaInfo object and NewMediaInfo functionto insert to image
object into director but with no success.

Hhmm.. Why? There are a couple of ways of doing this within Lingo. The
most performance-wise is turning DTS off, finding the rect of the camera
you want and grabbing that rect (plus the offset of the eD sprite) with
copyPixels from the stage´s image. Then you set the member´s image to
that image you´ve just grabbed.

Tell me if I wasn´t clear enough. Good luck,

I don't understand how can I do this.
I have the API of the camera (connect to fireware) and I know how to grab
image - VC++.
I'm getting the image from the camera in the xtra but I can't save it on the
cast member.

I don't familiar with you solution so if you have any sample or article it
will be wonderful.

ooohh!!! You mean a REAL camera... oops. As we´re on the 3d newsgroup I
thought you meant a camera from a shockwave
3D member. I suggest you ask this in a mailing list about xtra
development. For example: [url]http://www.pm-studio.pl/xtraforum/[/url]

Good luck!
