I require to be able to automaticaly acquire several hundred individual frames from a several minute sequence of continuous progressive scan video.
In the absence of a frame grabber, is it possible to play this tape into a PC through firewire, perhaps saving to disk as an uncompressed digital video sequence, and then use the AVI tools in LabVIEW 7.1 to acquire each frame consecutively and write to file. The video format is Sony's 15 FPS Prog Scan taken by a Sony trv900 camcorder.
Does anyone think this will work or is there a better way?
I thank you in advance.
