Draw text overlay using the OnVideoFrameBuffer event

Products: Video Capture SDK .Net, Video Edit SDK .Net, Media Player SDK .Net

Sample code​

If video effect API to draw text overlay is not enough, you can draw overlay manually in OnVideoFrameBuffer, using ImageHelper API.

        private void SDK_OnVideoFrameBuffer(object sender, VideoFrameBufferEventArgs e)
        {
            if (!logoInitiated)
            {
                logoInitiated = true;

                InitTextLogo();
            }

            FastImageProcessing.AddTextLogo(null, e.Frame.Data, e.Frame.Width, e.Frame.Height, ref textLogo, e.Timestamp, 0);
        }

        private bool logoInitiated = false;

        private VideoEffectTextLogo textLogo = null;

        private void InitTextLogo()
        {
            textLogo = new VideoEffectTextLogo(true);
            textLogo.Text = "Hello world!";
            textLogo.Left = 50;
            textLogo.Top = 50;
        }
