Detailed Description

Get or query the raw RGB32 bitmap data of a user's video frame.

Media files, mp3, avi, wmv, wma, etc. can be streamed to a channel and controlled separately from the voice and video capture input. Streaming a media file requires UserRight.USERRIGHT_TRANSMIT_MEDIAFILE_AUDIO and/or UserRight.USERRIGHT_TRANSMIT_MEDIAFILE_VIDEO.

The media formats supported by the TeamTalk DLL depends on the platform. On Windows the Windows Media Player's API is used to convert media files to TeamTalk's internal formats (i.e. Speex, OPUS and WebM). So whatever Windows Media Player can play should also be possible to stream using TeamTalkBase. On Mac and Linux avconv is used for converting media files which in similar way makes use of what the platform provides.

Use BearWare.TeamTalkBase.GetMediaFileInfo() to see if the media file format is supported and what properties are used for audio and video.

To stream a media file to a channel call BearWare.TeamTalkBase.StartStreamingMediaFileToChannel() and to stop the stream call BearWare.TeamTalkBase.StopStreamingMediaFileToChannel(). The user receiving the media stream can control volume levels by calling BearWare.TeamTalkBase.SetUserVolume() and BearWare.TeamTalkBase.AcquireUserMediaVideoFrame() to obtain video frames.

Subscription of media files is controlled by Subscription.SUBSCRIBE_MEDIAFILE.

Parameters
nUserIDThe user's ID. 0 for local client instance.
lpPictureReference to a bitmap which will receive the video frame. If the lpPicture reference is null or not the proper size a new Bitmap object will be allocated and returned instead. Ensure to ALWAYS call with the same lpPicture reference for each nUserID, otherwise a new Bitmap object will be allocated each time and cause the application to use a significant amount of memory.

Function Documentation

◆ StartStreamingMediaFileToChannel() [1/2]

bool BearWare.TeamTalkBase.StartStreamingMediaFileToChannel ( string  szMediaFilePath,
VideoCodec  lpVideoCodec 
)

Stream media file to channel, e.g. avi-, wav- or MP3-file.

See also
TeamTalkBase.StartStreamingMediaFileToChannel()

Definition at line 5954 of file TeamTalk.cs.

◆ StartStreamingMediaFileToChannel() [2/2]

bool BearWare.TeamTalkBase.StartStreamingMediaFileToChannel ( string  szMediaFilePath,
MediaFilePlayback  lpMediaFilePlayback,
VideoCodec  lpVideoCodec 
)

Stream media file to channel, e.g. avi-, wav- or MP3-file.

Call TeamTalkBase.GetMediaFileInfo() to get the properties of a media file, i.e. audio and video format.

The event BearWare.ClientEvent.CLIENTEVENT_STREAM_MEDIAFILE is posted when the media file starts streaming. The flags BearWare.ClientFlag.CLIENT_STREAM_AUDIO and/or BearWare.ClientFlag.CLIENT_STREAM_VIDEO will be set if the call is successful.

A media file is streamed using BearWare.StreamType.STREAMTYPE_MEDIAFILE_AUDIO and/or BearWare.StreamType.STREAMTYPE_MEDIAFILE_VIDEO. To subscribe/unsubscribe a media file being streamed use BearWare.Subscription.SUBSCRIBE_MEDIAFILE.

Streaming a media file requires BearWare.UserRight.USERRIGHT_TRANSMIT_MEDIAFILE_VIDEO and/or BearWare.UserRight.USERRIGHT_TRANSMIT_MEDIAFILE_AUDIO.

Parameters
szMediaFilePathFile path to media file.
lpMediaFilePlaybackPlayback settings to pause, seek and preprocess audio. If BearWare.AudioPreprocessorType.SPEEXDSP_AUDIOPREPROCESSOR then the echo cancellation part of BearWare.SpeexDSP is unused. Only denoise and AGC settings are applied.
lpVideoCodecIf video file then specify output codec properties here. Specify BearWare.Codec .NO_CODEC if video should be ignored.

◆ UpdateStreamingMediaFileToChannel()

bool BearWare.TeamTalkBase.UpdateStreamingMediaFileToChannel ( MediaFilePlayback  lpMediaFilePlayback,
VideoCodec  lpVideoCodec 
)

Update active media file being streamed to channel.

While streaming a media file to a channel it's possible to pause, seek and manipulate audio preprocessing by passing new BearWare.MediaFilePlayback properties.

Parameters
lpMediaFilePlaybackPlayback settings to pause, seek and preprocess audio. If BearWare.AudioPreprocessorType.SPEEXDSP_AUDIOPREPROCESSOR then the echo cancellation part of BearWare.SpeexDSP is unused. Only denoise and AGC settings are applied.
lpVideoCodecIf video file then specify output codec properties here, otherwise NULL.

◆ StopStreamingMediaFileToChannel()

bool BearWare.TeamTalkBase.StopStreamingMediaFileToChannel ( )

Stop streaming media file to channel.

This will clear the flags BearWare.ClientFlag.CLIENT_STREAM_AUDIO and/or BearWare.ClientFlag.CLIENT_STREAM_VIDEO.

◆ InitLocalPlayback()

int BearWare.TeamTalkBase.InitLocalPlayback ( string  szMediaFilePath,

)

Play media file using settings from BearWare.TeamTalkBase instance.

The sound system properties of the BearWare.TeamTalkBase instance will be used for playback, i.e. TeamTalkBase.SetSoundOutputMute(), TeamTalkBase.SetSoundOutputVolume() and TeamTalkBase.InitSoundOutputDevice().

Monitor progress of playback by checking for event #OnLocalMediaFile.

Parameters
szMediaFilePathPath to media file.
lpMediaFilePlaybackPlayback settings to pause, seek and preprocess audio. If BearWare.AudioPreprocessorType.SPEEXDSP_AUDIOPREPROCESSOR then the echo cancellation part of BearWare.SpeexDSP is unused. Only denoise and AGC settings are applied.
Returns
A Session ID for identifing the media playback session. If Session ID is <= 0 indicates an error.
A session ID identifier referred to as nPlaybackSessionID.

◆ AcquireUserMediaVideoFrame()

VideoFrame BearWare.TeamTalkBase.AcquireUserMediaVideoFrame ( int  nUserID,
out Bitmap  bmp 
)

The BearWare.VideoFrame extracted from the client instance will contain a pointer to the image's frame buffer, so a RGB32 bitmap can be displayed in a window control.

To release the acquired BearWare.VideoFrame call TeamTalkBase.ReleaseUserMediaVideoFrame().

A media video frame comes from a user's BearWare.StreamType.STREAMTYPE_MEDIAFILE_VIDEO.

Parameters
nUserIDThe user's ID. 0 for local user.
bmpA bitmap created from the BearWare.VideoFrame's data.
Returns
Returns video frame which will contain the image data. Note that it's the frameBuffer member of BearWare.VideoFrame which will contain the image data allocated internally by TeamTalkBase. Returns NULL if no video frame could be acquired.
