This example shows how to create and generate an RGB video using the NI 5431 Arbitrary Video Generator and its accompanying software, NI-Video.
The Create RGB Video Files from the BMP image VI example makes use of an NI-Video subVI, VDG_Get_RGB_I16_Line, which has the ability to take a normal bitmap image and create R, G, and B waveforms. This VI calculates the data for the R, G, and B components of a specified video line. The composite synchronization signal can be applied to one of the R, G, or B channel. This VI can create an entire R, G, and B video waveform by calling it in a software loop, creating each video line and then saving the entire waveform-video frame as a binary file.
The Create RGB Video Files from BMP Image VI is basically a modification of the basic Create Video File from BMP Image and Save VI that installed with NI-Video in the LabVIEW examples directory.
The individual R, G, or B video waveforms can be generated separately using the Download Video File to NI-5431 VI example that is installed with NI-Video in the LabVIEW examples directory.
For generation of all three waveforms--R, G, and B--use the included NI-Video RGB-Video ARB Synchronize Example VI. This VI synchronizes three NI-5431 Arbitrary Video Generators together and generates the create waveforms.
