Variable Speed and/or Frame-by-Frame Video playback with Waveform synchronization

[Resaebiunne]

I'm using Diadem 2011 to view data recorded in a LabVIEW Module that we have written.  The function of our LabVIEW module is to simultaneously capture video from two infrared cameras and 8 channels of waveform data from a DAQ and record this data to disk.  Data is recorded as two separate AVI files (compressed) and a TDMS file (using TDMS logging).  Using Diadem, I use the video synchronization function to view the TDMS data and video files.  I can scroll a cursor in the waveform data panel and view the video corresponding to the time selected.

I am looking for two features from Diadem that I am not sure are present: 1) A way to vary the playback speed from real-time.  2) A way to advance the video in a frame-by-frame manner.  If anyone has any suggestions on how I might implement this in Diadem 2011 or can verify that these features are present, I would very much like to know.

Thanks in advance.

Hello Resaebiunne,

All the functions you are looking for are available in the VIEW toolbar.

For the frame reverse/forward functions, please make sure that the section with the video inside is highlighted and then use these two buttons. The "Cursor Parameters" icon let's you change the playback speed.

Hope that helps,

Well that sure was easy!  Guess I just wasn't paying attention.

Thanks.

No worries, I guess DIAdem can be a little overwhelming when you are new to it's breadth of functionality.

Please don't feel shy about asking more questions, there is a lot to discover to make your data processing easier and quicker ...
