Versatile support on industry-standard programming languages
ACTi SDK-2000 offers a complete set of function calls to enable quick cost-effective development of IP surveillance
application under various developing environment such as Windows API, COM+, AciveX Control and URL
command. User may implement video surveillance system using Visual C++, Visual BASIC and Browser Script
programming language (HTML + JavaScript). Sample codes (in Visual C++, Visual BASIC and HTML + Java
Script) are included. User may use XViD, FFMPEG or other ISO-14496-2 compliant MPEG-4 software decoder to
decode ACTi’s MPEG-4 raw data stream.
Software modules
ACTi Streaming SDK modules include User Interface, Media, PTZ, Network, Video Motion Detection and Digital
I/O modules. User may program with these modules through supported programming languages.
Decodes with Xvid, FFMPEG
Developers may get MPEG-4 raw stream with a simple function, then decodes with XViD, FFMPEG or other
MPEG-4 compliant software decoders. Users may manipulate these MPEG-4 raw data by themselves, or decode
them into RGB buffer and process them as a series of pictures, in this way, you can treat the decoded RGB buffer
as if they are MJPEG streams. Sample codes are included.
Sample implementation codes
To implement a video surveillance system with ActiveX Control, the codes is listed as follow:
