Image to video stream
Hi all, I have an application designed into an FPGA. I have a CPU and a Video Capture controller. This captures frames to memory and is fast enought to do this almost in real time. I can live with about 12 frames per second in reality with this design.
What I am looking for is a way to encode the images to a file as a video stream for playback on a computer, PC or Mac etc. The images are captured to memory and compressed as JPG. Only the last 20 minutes are stored. After an event, the entire 20 minutes or less is to be stored to a video file on a compact flash drive. This is the part I am having difficulty finding.
I have looked around and found some FPGA IP to do this but the cost is just way to prohibitive for my project. I am only a small design house with myself as the sole designer so I need to find a way to do this at a lower cost. I have found some C code for AVI but this is all written for the PC and I was looking for something a but more generic.
Any help appreciated.
Regards
