snapvid
Given a <video>
element that, snapvid will take a snapshot of the
currently displayed frame and provide a base64 data uri.
Example Usage
var snapvid = require('snapvid');
var h = require('hyperscript');
var getUserMedia = require('getusermedia');
var attachstream = require('attachmediastream');
var video;
function captureVid() {
document.body.appendChild(h('div', h('img', { src: snapvid(video) })));
}
function createSource(url) {
return h('source', {
src: url,
type: 'video/' + url.replace(/^(?:.*\.)(\w+)$/, '$1')
});
}
getUserMedia({ video: true, audio: true }, function(err, stream) {
if (err) {
return console.error('could not capture stream: ', err);
}
// attach the stream
video = attachstream(stream, null, { muted: true });
// add a video element
document.body.appendChild(video);
// add the capture video button
document.body.appendChild(h('div', h('button', { onclick: captureVid }, 'capture')));
});
