The idea comes while developing IMAQdx program which should acquire as much frames as possible from GigE camera (1 Mpix, 100+ fps). This frame rate is higher than computer can process and save it to avi. Utilizing large buffer on memory (16Gb of RAM) and LabVIEW x64 works smoothly, but when the buffer is filled, the acquisition stops while only a fraction of the frames have been processed. We need finite acquisition, but with not known in advance duration.
From the other hand, the images that have been acquired are still in the buffer. It would be nice to have the ability to get the acquired frames from buffer. Another way is to add something like "Pause grab" function which stops filling the buffer not destoying the buffer.
Any idea that has not received any kudos within a year after posting will be automatically declined.
