All-in-One Media Framework (Delphi/ActiveX)

v11.2

The framework includes several libraries designed for video capture, editing, and playback. The video capture core enables the recording of video and audio from various sources, such as webcams, IP cameras, or screens. The video editing core allows you to cut, join, process, and reencode files. The media player core can play video and audio files, as well as network streams. All cores support video and audio effects, frame grabbing, Picture-in-Picture, and on-screen display (OSD).
