Hi bbanelli,

Thank you for your kind words.

I am again feeling the coding bug, and maintenance was just the thing to clear out the cobwebs.

I've just posted a new OpenCV plus application, that will capture and record a users window actions to an AVI video file: Record Window
- can also be configured as a PureBasic Tool

Cheers!

Thank you my friend.

Have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

NB*: I will probably just continue creating small applications around the OpenCV interface; there are so many possibilities.

Updated:
- added back the Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Libraries to the various Windows packages
-- originally suggested by acreis in this post

cvCreateVideoWriter Windows examples now set to use the XVID codec.
- install: only the DIVX option is required
- START > XVID > Encoder Config > Other Options... > Display encoding status (remove checkbox)

----------------------------------------------------------

Removed DPI Awareness functions from the Windows packages.
- switched to Windows API instead of using PureBasic's built-in ExamineDesktops

NB*: Multiple global find/replace calls were performed with limited testing; please report any problems.

Hi Michael Vogel,

Question taken from this post: https://www.purebasic.fr/english/viewtopic.php?p=534605#p534605

Seems that the OpenCV libraries are doing a lot of stuff...

Some days ago I started to write a simple stretch function to be used as an external program for the Faststone Viewer to correct the perspective of photos. It uses the magick library (parameter -distort Perspective) for now but the lib is very large for this tiny stuff...

...can you tell me how to do a simple stretch for calculating a trapezium to a rectangle (or vice versa)?

Download the following OpenCV package from my website: OpenCV_2.4.13.6_WIN_32_SRC_(main)
- obviously the entire interface isn't necessary, but that can be worked out later if you decide to go the OpenCV route

See the following examples:
- cv_warpperspective_1.pb, cv_warpperspective_2.pb

This should get you started, but if you need additional help please don't hesitate to post back.

Updated (Linux Packages):
- fixed a path problem
- fixed the webcam examples
- fixed window close event

Path Problem
After updating to Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS (Bionic Beaver) none of the examples worked.

Webcam Examples
Before today I did not have a fully functional (VMWare) webcam; testing the webcam examples was non-existent.

Window Close Event
Programmatically closing one window to open another would exit the main loop.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Updated:
- patched the webcam examples (all packages)

Webcam Examples
I was trying to force a size restriction, not taking into account the scale factor.
Changed the way the webcam is attached; while working with two webcams I noticed a problem.
