Video frames not displaying properly
Show older comments
I am trying to display video frames, but they're showing up incorrectly.
I'm using MATLAB R2019b, a Point Grey Flea3 camera, the "Image Acquisition Toolbox Support Package for Point Grey Hardware," Point Grey FlyCap2, and the following code:
vid = videoinput('winvideo', 1, 'RGB32_1600x1200');
set(vid,'FramesPerTrigger',Inf);
set(vid,'ReturnedColorSpace','rgb');
vid.FrameGrabInterval = 5;
start(vid);
while(vid.FramesAcquired <= 100)
data = getsnapshot(vid);
imshow(data);
end
stop(vid);
flushdata(vid);
clear all;
Previously, the video would display as expected, but for some reason I now get results like the attached image. The video looks fine in FlyCap.

It sort of looks like the internal YUV was in "packed" format and was converted incorrectly to RGB

I would have expected set(vid,'ReturnedColorSpace','rgb'); to do that for you...

You already did that; I am surprised it did not work. But anyhow, setting RGB in FlyCap got you working, and that's the important part for now.
