Writing a DirectShow Video Stream

Related nodes

Writer (DShow9)
VideoIn (DShow9)
FileStream (DShow9)

This should work well when connected directly to a VideoIn (DShow9) or FileStream (DShow9) but not so well when connected to an AsVideo (EX9.Texture).
In the latter case the rendered image has to be transferred back from the graphiccards memory to cpu memory which is traditionally a slow process.

Writer (DShow9) writes .avis with a fixed 25 frames per second. For your resulting .avi to be kind of smooth (as smooth as 25fps can be...) you'll therefore have to make sure that your patch is running at exactly 25fps. Use the Timing (Debug) to check this and the MainLoop (VVVV) to limit the framerate. Good luck.
