WhackedTV

Last Revision:
Version 1.5, 2008-05-09
Fixed two bugs: (1) "Select Output Format" in the audio dialog failed with error -206 if the source audio were set to 20 or 24 bits on an Intel Mac. The source format is 24-bits aligned low in 32-bits. WhackedTV was setting this as the default output format. But QuickTime movies can only contain packed samples. Added a utility function to conform the output format for movie-safety. (2) Began preferring the kQTSGAudioPropertyID_CodecSpecificSettingsArray property to the kQTSGAudioPropertyID_MagicCookie property. See QuickTimeComponents.h for an explanation of the differences between these properties, and why CodecSpecificSettingsArray should always be preferred over MagicCookie.

WhackedTV is a replacement for the venerable Carbon HackTV. It shows how to use the Sequence Grabber API's to capture movies from external video and audio sources, just as HackTV, but adds many important new features, including simultaneous capture from multiple SGChannel's, use of the new SGAudioChannel (including a sample Cocoa audio preferences user interface), video preview using ICMDecompressionSessions and OpenGL.
