Genvid Video Parameters

The Genvid Video Parameters define the parameters to capture video from your game for your broadcast session. You set these properties to perform the capture in the way you prefer.

Genvid Video inspector view
Id

The unique name of the video stream. (This must be unique to any other stream in your project.)

Framerate

The framerate of the video stream. Make sure to set a compatible value (30 or 60).

Capture Type

The type of video capture to use: Automatic or Texture. You can’t change this setting during runtime.

  • Automatic performs a video capture using the dxswapchain.

  • Texture performs a video capture via the texture or camera indicated in the Video Source property.

Video Source

This property is a private game object used for the Texture video capture type. If you need to change to another camera or texture during runtime, you can use a command similar to this:

GenvidPlugin.Instance.SessionManager.Session.Video.Settings.VideoSource = newVideoSource;
