VP8.NET

Project Description

VP8.NET is a dual-licensed commercial/GPL C++ CLR wrapper which allows .NET applications to easily use the VP8 video codec, a high quality, royalty free, open source codec. For more information about VP8, visit www.webmproject.org. To contact the VP8.NET team, visit www.frozenmountain.com.

Usage

VP8.NET provides two classes: Encoder and Decoder. Create an Encoder to convert bitmaps into VP8 frames, or create a Decoder to convert VP8 frames into bitmaps.

Encoding (C#)

class EncodingSession
{
    private readonly VP8.Encoder Encoder;

    public EncodingSession(int width, int height, int fps)
    {
        Encoder = new VP8.Encoder(width, height, fps);
    }

    public byte[] Encode(Image frame)
    {
        return Encoder.Encode((Bitmap)frame);
    }
}

Decoding (C#)

class DecodingSession
{
    private readonly VP8.Decoder Decoder;

    public DecodingSession()
    {
        Decoder = new Decoder();
    }

    public Image Decode(byte[] encodedFrame)
    {
        return Decoder.Decode(encodedFrame);
    }
}

The source code example uses the AForge.NET framework to access raw camera frames.
