The Dispose method is used to release resources used by the VideoWriter instance. When called, it ensures that the encoder is flushed and the video is finalized, making sure that all data is properly written and the video file is complete.
The Dispose method is used to release resources used by the VideoWriter instance. When called, it ensures that the encoder is flushed and the video is finalized, making sure that all data is properly written and the video file is complete.
Call Dispose when you are finished using the VideoWriter instance. This method is crucial for freeing up resources and ensuring that the video file is correctly finalized. It is a good practice to use this method within a using statement or to explicitly call it in a finally block to guarantee that resources are released even if an exception occurs.
// Example of using VideoWriter with Dispose
// Create a new VideoWriter instance
VideoWriter videoWriter = new VideoWriter();
try
{
// Add frames to the video
videoWriter.AddFrame(frameData, timestamp);
// ... add more frames as needed
}
finally
{
// Ensure resources are released and video is finalized
videoWriter.Dispose();
}
// Alternatively, use a using statement
using (VideoWriter videoWriter = new VideoWriter())
{
// Add frames to the video
videoWriter.AddFrame(frameData, timestamp);
// ... add more frames as needed
}
