Description
in the past there has been ofxQtVideoSaver and a few others. i think this is a really hard problem because it basically needs to be written for each platform, but something that should eventually be solved.
two major use cases i know are:
- capturing and saving simultaneously, for long streams
- capturing a quick burst of video then saving it to disk
which would might be handled a little differently.
