he,
im planning to use avisynth as a video-assist for Stopmotionanimation.
i use an old 16mm filmcamera for the frames wich doesnt have any digital feature. the problem is, that i cant compare 2 sequenced frames. i mean i dont know exactly where the character(for example) was at the last frame. but i have to know that while animating it.
so, i where thinking about the following:
setup is: 1.)16mm Camera 2.)DigiStillCam or WebCam 3.)Computer with Avisynth
i'll stick the WebCam on the 16mm Camera and connect it to the Computer.
whenever i shot a frame with the 16mm i also shot one with the WebCam.
what i want to do with avisyth is to output rotatory the live-frame and the picture.jpg i shot before (wich is also shot by 16mm). this would let me control the animation and would result in way better smooth-motion.
this should be possible, right?
and the other question is: is there avisyth-like port for linux?
if not i'll go on and use Windows.
thank you!

I would personally prefer DigiStillcamera. Many (of the more expensise) cameras can be controlled from a computer - otherwise you can most likely get an external trigger for your camera, so you don't risk shaking the camera.
If you are better experienced with 16mm, it is also a very good choice, except perhaps a bit more expensive. But you need a $1000 DigiStillCam to get similiar quality.
I would not use AviSynth before you have the frame sequences from your camera.
And no - there is no linux version.
he sh0dan,
yeah i thought about a DigiStillCamera for shot the whole movie.
but - its really expensive, this camera would require full manual control (f-stop, refocus,..) gt; 1500$ - 10000$ cant spend 10% of this...
and i already have a 16mm bolex so i have to do the film with it.
the WebCam doesnt need a good quality because i use it only for previewing the frame i want to shot with my 16mm + compare it with the previous shot.
do you understand it? its difficult for me to explain because my english is really bad.
what do you mean with quot;I would not use AviSynth before you have the frame sequences from your camera.quot;?
i only want to loop 2 jpg's for comparing it. isnt it possible?
i made a quick sketch and attached it, so you can see how it will look.
here is the SCETCH
he people,
i think i didnt articulte me correct and it wasnt necessary to confuse you with that 16mm thing.
the only thing i want to know is, if its possible to make a avisynth script wich plays back a *.JPG for about 25 frames and after this a WebCam-stream (also for 25 frames or 1 second). i saw somewhere a script wich could load some JPG's - so this should work. but i dont know how to load a webcam-stream in the avisyth script. i dont have a WebCam now, so i cant try and play arround a little bit. it would be nice if someone could explain me how to do so!
thank you!

Have a look at ImageReader. It seems to do what you request. |
