How do you use labview 7 and vision to create avi file

[Deanna Zhang]

Hi, I have labview 7 and IMAQ Vision (latest one). I have captured images from a digital camera in continuous mode. I would like to make an avi file from these images, however the IMAQ read/write AVI demo program did not seem to work. I have tried incorporating the AVI init, write AVI and AVI close subvis into my main program but the avi file it creates is corrupted and very small in size.

Are you using the shipping example or one that you downloaded off the web? The shipping examples are called "Grab and Save to AVI.vi" and "Sequence and Save to AVI.vi". They are located in "...\LabVIEW 7.0\examples\IMAQ\IMAQ File IO.llb" The shipping examples install with NI-IMAQ 2.6 available for free off the NI Web Site.
