x264 LabVIEW 15

Solved!
Go to solution

I have AVC (H264) file.
DivX/KMP players reads it normal.
I need to analyze this file in LabVIEW.
But when read I get -1074395970 error (no codec).

Win 7 (win 10 on customer PC)
LabVIEW 15 (32)

I have installed
C:\Program Files\video\x264vfw64\x264vfw64.dll
and
C:\Program Files (x86)\DivX

 

and "get codc names" returns

codecs.PNG

 

What I need to install / configure so that LabVIEW can read this format?

Try installing 32-bit version of this codec.

The LabVIEW Tools Network (VIPM) contains a "Multimedia for LabVIEW" library that contains the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of m4LabVIEW and purports to allow you to read/write MPeg4 (h.264) files.  I haven't tried it.  It isn't free, but a Run-Time license doesn't seem very expensive.

 

If this works, please report this here as I'm sure others will be very interested.  I might even spring for it, myself ...

Thank you.
I installed the codec from here https://sourceforge.net/projects/x264vfw/
and now the file is successfully read.

I installed this pack, but when tried to open my file, I've get error 1430:
g_StaticWrapperPath.vi<APPEND>

<b>Complete call chain:</b>
     g_StaticWrapperPath.vi
     FileReader.lvclass:FileRdrNew.vi
     FileReader.lvclass:PAOpenInputFile.vi
     Untitled 2

Because the installation of 32-bit codec works, I will not try this pack more.
