    $30-$250 USD

Project Description:

I have created a small and simple-to-use webcam recording application in Delphi using the TVideoGrabber library.

It does exactly what I need but the output files (320x240 resolution 25 FPS) are huge - 10 seconds of recording can result in a 20mb+ AVI file using some of the codecs I have installed on my system!

I have tried several codecs - some have produced smaller files but the quality of the recording is usually poor and/or there are video-sound synchonisation issues.

It certainly seems that the problem is codec-related so I need someone experienced in video recording and/or TVideoGrabber development to find me a suitable codec (ideally freeware) and provide the relevant codec settings to achieve a good quality recording (AVI format) with good compression and no sound-sync issues.

Skills required:

Delphi, Video Services

    Hi,
    Try using H.264 encoder, it offers a small size and better quality than any other codecs.
