I want to use a webcam in c# code with Aforge.NET, but It didin't work because I don't use forms.
See my code below :
public partial class CapturePage : Page
{
private bool DeviceExist = false;
private FilterInfoCollection videoDevices;
private VideoCaptureDevice videoSource = null;
public CapturePage()
{
InitializeComponent();
getCamList();
startVideo();
}
// get the devices name
private void getCamList()
{
try
{
videoDevices = new FilterInfoCollection(FilterCategory.VideoInputDevice);
if (videoDevices.Count == 0)
throw new ApplicationException();
DeviceExist = true;
}
catch (ApplicationException)
{
DeviceExist = false;
}
}
//toggle start and stop button
private void startVideo() // as it's say
{
if (DeviceExist)
{
videoSource = new VideoCaptureDevice(videoDevices[0].MonikerString); // the only one webcam
videoSource.NewFrame += new NewFrameEventHandler(video_NewFrame);
CloseVideoSource();
// videoSource.DesiredFrameSize = new Size(160, 120); // deprecated ?
//videoSource.DesiredFrameRate = 10;
videoSource.Start();
}
else
{
// error
}
}
else
{
if (videoSource.IsRunning)
{
timer1.Enabled = false;
CloseVideoSource();
}
}
}
//eventhandler if new frame is ready
private void video_NewFrame(object sender, NewFrameEventArgs eventArgs)
{
Bitmap img = (Bitmap)eventArgs.Frame.Clone();
//do processing here
pictureBox1.Image = img; // But I can't have pictureBox in xaml ??
}
//close the device safely
private void CloseVideoSource()
{
if (!(videoSource == null))
if (videoSource.IsRunning)
{
videoSource.SignalToStop();
videoSource = null;
}
}
}
}
I tried this code in a form application, and it's work, but with a page, PictureBox are not referenced. Even if I reference it and create one in the code, this didn't work.
Can I, and how, use a PictureBox in a XAML Page ? Or there is an other solution tu use Aforge.net Webcam in Xaml Page ?
You could use WindowsFormsHost to integrate this Page in your WPF application.
If you need a WPF bitmap you may "convert" it like desribed here: Load a WPF BitmapImage from a System.Drawing.Bitmap
I succeded with changing the NewFrame methode like this:
private void video_NewFrame(object sender, NewFrameEventArgs eventArgs)
{
System.Drawing.Image imgforms = (System.Drawing.Bitmap)eventArgs.Frame.Clone();
BitmapImage bi = new BitmapImage();
bi.BeginInit();
MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream();
imgforms.Save(ms, ImageFormat.Bmp);
ms.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);
bi.StreamSource = ms;
bi.EndInit();
//Using the freeze function to avoid cross thread operations
bi.Freeze();
//Calling the UI thread using the Dispatcher to update the 'Image' WPF control
Dispatcher.BeginInvoke(new ThreadStart(delegate
{
ImageWebcam.Source = bi; /*frameholder is the name of the 'Image' WPF control*/
}));
}
cheers !
