PreviewVisible Property

Summary

Gets or sets the preview visible state.

Syntax

C++/CLI

public virtual bool PreviewVisible { get; set; }

public: 
virtual property bool PreviewVisible { 
   bool get(); 
   void set (    bool ); 
}

Property Value

true if Preview is visible; false, otherwise.

Remarks

To preview video during conversion, this property and the Preview property must both be set to true. If the property fails, an error is raised. For more information, refer to the Error Codes.

Note: When setting this property, the convert control must be in the stopped state.

Example

using Leadtools; 
using Leadtools.Multimedia; 
using LeadtoolsMultimediaExamples.Fixtures; 
 
 
public bool _result = false; 
public ConvertCtrlForm _form = new ConvertCtrlForm(); 
 
public void HasDialogExample() 
{ 
   // reference the convert control 
   ConvertCtrl convertctrl = _form.ConvertCtrl; 
 
   // input and output files 
   string inFile = Path.Combine(LEAD_VARS.MediaDir, "ConvertCtrl_Source.avi"); 
   string outFile = Path.Combine(LEAD_VARS.MediaDir, "ConvertCtrl_HasDialogExample.avi"); 
 
   try 
   { 
      // set the source for conversion 
      convertctrl.SourceFile = inFile; 
 
      // set the video and audio compressors 
      convertctrl.VideoCompressors.Mpeg2.Selected = true; 
      convertctrl.AudioCompressors.AC3.Selected = true; 
 
      // set the target output file and format 
      convertctrl.TargetFile = outFile; 
 
      // set the target output format 
      convertctrl.TargetFormat = TargetFormatType.AVI; 
 
      // The HasDialog method tells us that the control 
      // can display the desired settings dialog. 
      // check to see if the convert source dialog is available 
      if (convertctrl.HasDialog(ConvertDlg.TargetFormat)) 
      { 
         // now show it 
         convertctrl.ShowDialog(ConvertDlg.TargetFormat, _form); 
         _result = true; 
      } 
 
      // enable preview 
      convertctrl.Preview = true; 
 
      // set preview visible 
      convertctrl.PreviewVisible = true; 
 
      // start the capture process 
      convertctrl.StartConvert(); 
 
      // we'll loop on the state and pump messages for this example. 
      // but you should not need to if running from a Windows Forms application. 
      while (convertctrl.State == ConvertState.Running) 
         Application.DoEvents(); 
 
      // see if there was an error 
      if (convertctrl.ConvertError != 0) 
      { 
         // set the result to false 
         _result = false; 
      } 
   } 
   catch (Exception) 
   { 
      _result = false; 
   } 
}
