Graphics / Video frames display

« on: March 25, 2008, 07:03:28 pm »

Hi,

I am new in using SFML which I find quite interesting.
I was wondering if someone could confirm that my approach is correct:

I am trying to use SFML as a hardware accelerator to display 2D video frames in a GUI. I have a video camera which triggers a callback every time a new video frame (grey level, 8bpp) is available.

I created a view, an image and a sprite. In the callback, I call the following functions:

Code: [Select]


Image.LoadFromPixels(ImageWidth, ImageHeight, ImageDataPointer);
Sprite.SetImage(Image);
SFMLView.Draw(Sprite);
SFMLView.Display();


Is this the proper (ie. most efficient)way to do this?

Thanks

Bob
