Description
This module is a basic AVI writer that receives incoming video frames and stores them to disk. Currently, it is unable to detect the incoming frame rate and therefore this needs to be entered by the user prior to recording commencing. Any video frames pushed into the device will be assumed to simply be additional frames being added at the frame rate specified. A side effect of this module is, therefore, that if frames are pushed to the AVIRecorder at a faster rate than the specified frame rate, the produced AVI file will have the appearance of running in slow-motion. Recorded files will be saved to the HectorStore\Recordings folder on the scratch disk specified in HECTOR's settings. If a file already exists, it will be overwritten.
