Audio capture to FLAC file

Products: Video Capture SDK .Net

An open-source codec, FLAC provides lossless audio compression, meaning it reduces file size without any loss in sound quality. Ideal for audiophiles and for archiving music, FLAC files are larger than MP3s but offer perfect sound replication from the original source.

Sample code​

Set sample FLAC settings and apply them as output format.

var flacOutput = new FLACOutput();
flacOutput.Level = 5;
VideoCapture1.Output_Format = flacOutput;

Set audio capture mode.

VideoCapture1.Mode = VideoCaptureMode.AudioCapture;

Set the file name.

VideoCapture1.Output_Filename = "output.flac";

Start capture (sync or async).

await VideoCapture1.StartAsync();

Required redists​

  • Video capture redist x86 x64

  • XIPH formats (Ogg, Vorbis, FLAC) output/source - x86 or x64

How can the required redists be installed or deployed to the user's PC?
