3. Added user selection warning box to continue recording or not when an encoding error happened and the ignoreEncoding option was not selected by user
4. Added call to MPEGIOPro_ResetEncoderIC() when message WM_MPEGIOPRO_ENCODE_ERR is received

6. Added "Reset At Split" checkBox at Setup Window: when selected, each time a file split during recording will cause the channel's MPEG encoding IC to reset, this can reduce the chances of the encoding error in the subsequent encoding process
7. Added SplitOver1 in Setup: when set (default is cleared) and Split is enabled (either by file size or by time) during encoding, the same file will be overwritten repeatedly without new split file ever being created
8. Added extraMsg as parameter to function CreateRecordingLog(ULONG chanNum, char *extraMsg)

VOVERLAY ver. 1.0.2.0 Software and SDK Download Click HERE. (Full Application Manual) (Full SDK Manual)

Changes in VOVERLAY 1.0.2.0 over the previous versions:

1. The SDK fixed the flying shivering pixels problem when calling functions textol_LoadImageFromWindow() and textol_LoadImageFromWindowOnThread() with "transparent" == TRUE

2. The SDK added extra parameter "bool clearOldOverlay" for functions textol_LoadImageFile(), textol_LoadImageFromWindow() and textol_LoadImageFromWindowOnThread() that when set to true,

Will make area on the image or window with the same colour as the transparencyKey to become transparent

3. Application software Voverlay.exe added buttons "Clear Old Overlay Value", "Window Content Static"

4. Application software Voverlay.exe now allow the "Transparent" check box and "Transparency Colour" button to appear for "Window" Item.

VOVERLAY ver. 1.2.1.0 Software and SDK Download Click HERE. (Full Application Manual) (Full SDK Manual)

Note: This version of software is for Voverlay hardware released from August 2010 onwards, do not use it for Voverlay hardware released prior to August 2010!

Changes in VOVERLAY 1.2.1.0 over the previous versions:

1. The SDK version 1.2.1.0 added the followings over the SDK version 1.2.0.0

(1) The SDK added extra parameter "bool clearOldOverlay" for functions

textol_LoadImageFile(),

textol_LoadImageFromWindow() and

textol_LoadImageFromWindowOnThread()

This parameter defaults to false. When it is set to true, the area on the image or window whose

pixel colours have minimum difference with the transparencyKey colour will become

transparent (exposing the video underneath them).

When calling functions textol_LoadImageFromWindow() and

textol_LoadImageFromWindowOnThread() with parameter "transparent" == TRUE, setting

parameter clearOldOverlay to true can eliminate the flying shivering pixels in the overlay’s

background area.

(2) The SDK added extra parameter “ULONG TKErrorRange” (default to zero) to function

textol_LoadImageFromWindowOnThread(), this parameter has the same meaning as in function

textol_LoadImageFromWindow().

(3) Application software written and compiled with version a SDK (prior to version 1.2.0.0) and run

on version a Voverlay hardware should be able to compile and link with SDK version 1.2.1.0

without source code modification, and the executable thus created should run on version b

Voverlay hardware with the same behavior.

2. The Voverlay.exe version 1.2.1.0 application software added the followings over version 1.2.0.0:

(1) Check Box Clear Old Overlay Value is added to Overlay Items Graphics File and Windows

(2) Transparency Colour Button and Transparent Check Box are added to Overlay Items

Graphics File and Windows

(3) Check Box Window Content Static is added to the Overlay Item Window

3. The VisualBasic Sample Project and source code VoverlayVB is added under the src\VB folder, Visual C++ sample now is under src\C++ folder

4. Added Visual C# Sample Project and source code under src\CSharp folder, where a Class Library is under src\CSharp\ClassLibrary1 folder which creates a class library VOverlayAPI.dll containing all VOverlay SDK functions in a class "Voverlay", and an application project under src\CSharp\CSharp
