Interface LabView and Mutech's Mv-1000 Video Digitizer

[JTU]

I am trying to create a VI that will acquire and display images in real-time. We are using the Mutech MV-1000 video digitizer to store the 8-bit video data
into an on-board VRAM. My LabView VI must communicate with the MV-1000 in order to grab this data, manipulate it, and then display it in real-time. I
have spoken with Mutech, and they claim to have a DLL file that will transfer the data to a specific target (e.g. PC memory) so that I can use this data in any way that I want. First, I need to find a way to have LabView communicate with Mutech's DLL. Second, I need to interpret the 8-bit data and convert it real-time images and video.

LabVIEW communicates with DLLs via the Call Library Node on the "Advanced" palette. Check out this tutorial:

Once you have the retrieved data, use LabVIEW's picture control to display images on the front panel. The "Graphics and Sound" palette contain VIs that draw images to the picture control.
