Hello Mahesh,

no, unfortunately there is no example for this use-case available for the File library.
One of the problems is that there is no Video Decompression TB for ADTF 3.x and so there is no given Video decompression code for the File library.
You can see the existing File Library Examples here
You will have to re-write your Code from the Streaming library for the File library.

Uncompressed Videos will be possible. For this you have to create an "adtf/image" Stream Type give the images as samples to the writer.
As basis/example you can have a look to the "CAN Writer" example in the ADTF File Library. What has to be set in the stream type can be obtained from the implementation of the class AdtfCoreMediaTypeVideoSerializer.

I hope this will help you.

Hello Mahesh,

the Video (de)compression support depends on the ADTF Video Compression Toolbox.
Unfortunately the ADTF Video Compression Toolbox was (also on repeated resubmission in the customer forum) unanimously rejected by the ADTF Customer Forum for ADTF 3.x.
Please also see our Key Topics about this:

@Flo: Can you please take a look about the 2. question?

Hi Mahesh,

as Matthias already said, the Video Compression TB is EOL and it was declined to migrate to ADTF 3.x universe.
That's why the source code is available as each declined:

• https://support.digitalwerk.net/adtf/v3/keytopics/index.html

We are working on a new solution based on GStreamer but it's not clear if it will be part of common delivery, seperate or open source... will be discussed soon.
You find the prototype here:

• https://git.digitalwerk.net/adtf3_open_source/adtf3_video_toolbox

Anyway... that's all different to your use case.

1. Will there be no Video decompression support for ADTF File library going ahead ? If there will be a support then when do we expect it to be released ?

No, because the IFHD does not know ANYTHING about video, compression or anything.
But you can extend the reader by own adtffileplugins.
There is a deserialzer to support compressed videos from ADTF 2.x you find in the ADTF delivery:

• https://support.digitalwerk.net/adtf/v3/adtf_html/page_demo_adtf2_compressed_video_deserializer.html

That's it!
This make it possible to handle compressed video data witin IFHD.

2. Video blocks can be identified from the stream type "adtf/image", but can they be saved jpgs or pngs files out of the recorded video stream ?

Yes, we sharing a guide for a processor to export images from (uncompressed) video stream:

Hello Mahesh,

we haven't got any feedback yet.
Can we close the ticket?
Please give feedback until the 08. May
