techsray Posted July 25, 2017 Posted July 25, 2017 Hello All, I am trying to capture a video feed from a window in a software and then recast that in another GUI designed using AutoIt. What would be the best strategy to approach this? Thank you
FrancescoDiMuro Posted July 26, 2017 Posted July 26, 2017 @techsray Hi and welcome to the AutoIt forum From which feed you are trying to capture this video? And why do you have to do this? What's the purpose? Click here to see my signature: Spoiler ALWAYS GOOD TO READ: Forum Rules Forum Etiquette
techsray Posted July 26, 2017 Author Posted July 26, 2017 (edited) @FrancescoDiMuro There is this software that captures the video feed from a microscope. I intend to grab that and along with some other enhancements recast that feed into a GUI designed by me. Basically, this will allow my research team to make some changes to the microscope parameters and see the changes live right next to the controls that were used to do those changes. I do not know if this explains your question. Than you for taking interest and initiative in helping me out here. Please let me know if you need to know anything else.

iamtheky Posted July 26, 2017 Posted July 26, 2017 how are you currently accessing the feed, can you determine the URL of the current stream? Tell us everything you know about the <Software> and the <Video>. Because that could be literally thousands of combinations of things that require different solutions. And then be prepared for a super slow walk through on how to write AutoIt. ,-. .--. ________ .-. .-. ,---. ,-. .-. .-. .-. |(| / /\ \ |\ /| |__ __||| | | || .-' | |/ / \ \_/ )/ (_) / /__\ \ |(\ / | )| | | `-' | | `-. | | / __ \ (_) | | | __ | (_)\/ | (_) | | .-. | | .-' | | \ |__| ) ( | | | | |)| | \ / | | | | | |)| | `--. | |) \ | | `-' |_| (_) | |\/| | `-' /( (_)/( __.' |((_)-' /(_| '-' '-' (__) (__) (_) (__)

And then be prepared for a super slow walk through on how to write AutoIt. @iamtheky The software is OPUS from Bruker and the video feed is from a microscope (an not over any URL: as far as I know currently). The computer that this software runs on is completely separated from outside network.

All these type of machines offer some kind of serial communication. techsray 1 FAQ 31 How to click some elements, FAQ 40 Test automation with AutoIt, Multithreading CLR .NET Powershell CMDLets
iamtheky Posted July 29, 2017 Posted July 29, 2017 Well done, i am concerned that my googling skills are deteriorating; or thats the most niche shit ever and all of the words should be in the title of the post. ,-. .--. ________ .-. .-. ,---. ,-. .-. .-. .-. |(| / /\ \ |\ /| |__ __||| | | || .-' | |/ / \ \_/ )/ (_) / /__\ \ |(\ / | )| | | `-' | | `-. | | / __ \ (_) | | | __ | (_)\/ | (_) | | .-. | | .-' | | \ |__| ) ( | | | | |)| | \ / | | | | | |)| | `--. | |) \ | | `-' |_| (_) | |\/| | `-' /( (_)/( __.' |((_)-' /(_| '-' '-' (__) (__) (_) (__)
