Overview

This example VI shows how to convert a 32 bit avi video into a 8 bit avi.

 

Description

In some cases you may have a 32 bit AVI and really need an 8 bit AVI. If you use Vision Assistant you will notice that you are only able to make a 32bit AVI. To work around this you can use a VI to convert the AVI back to 8bit images.

 

Requirements

 Software

  • LabVIEW Base Development System 2012 (or compatible)
  • NI Vision Development Module 2012 (or compatible)

 Hardware

  • No hardware is necessary to use this example VI
