Video Rendering on Windows Mobile

[eyedia]

I am trying to render a video texture and a revolving 3D cube on it. Till now I have following…

1. A light weight dll which captures video and call backs “registered” method with video buffer, so that we can paint/do whatever in our main window.
2. 3D cube rendering on blank background.

My problem : not able to render the video buffer on the background of 3D cube.

–Creating video texture as
void CreateVideoTexture(int w, int h, int tW, int tH)
{
width = w;
height = h;
texWidth = tW;
texHeight = tH;

glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);	
glGenTextures(1, &texId);	
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, texId);	

glTexParameterx(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER, GL_LINEAR);	
glTexParameterx(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER, GL_LINEAR);	
glTexParameterx(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_S, GL_REPEAT);	
glTexParameterx(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_T, GL_REPEAT);	

unsigned char* pixels = new unsigned char[texWidth*texHeight];

glTexImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, GL_RGB, texWidth, texHeight, 0, GL_RGB, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, pixels);	

IsAnyGLError = glGetError();
delete pixels;

}

–Updating video texture
void UpdateVideoTexture(unsigned char* pixels)
{
if (!pixels) return;

if (texId == 0)
	{
	// printf("Error: texture not created!!!

");
return;
}

glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);	
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D,texId);
glTexImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, GL_RGBA, texWidth, texHeight, 0, GL_RGBA, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, pixels);	
glDisable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);

}

–Render the video texture
void RenderVideoTexture()
{
static GLubyte front[] = {0,1,2,3};
static GLfloat vertices[] = {-50.0, -50.0, 0.0,
50.0, -50.0, 0.0,
50.0, 50.0, 0.0,
-50.0, 50.0, 0.0};

static GLfloat xTex = width  / (float)texWidth;
static GLfloat yTex = height / (float)texHeight;

// y-flipped
//static GLfloat texCoords[] 	= {0.0, 0.0, 	xTex, 0.0, 		xTex, yTex, 	0.0, yTex};

// Non y-flipped
static GLfloat texCoords[] 	= {0.0, yTex,	xTex, yTex, 	xTex, 0.0,		0.0, 0.0};


glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION);
glPushMatrix();
glLoadIdentity();
glOrthof( -50.0, 50.0, -50.0, 50.0, -50.0, 50.0);

glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW);
glPushMatrix();
glLoadIdentity();

glColor4f(1.0f,1.0f,1.0f,1.0f);		// This is important! Reset color for texture rendering.
glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT);	

glDisable(GL_BLEND);
glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, texId);

glEnableClientState(GL_VERTEX_ARRAY);
glVertexPointer(3, GL_FLOAT, 0, vertices);

glEnableClientState(GL_TEXTURE_COORD_ARRAY);
glTexCoordPointer(2, GL_FLOAT, 0,  texCoords);

glDrawElements(GL_TRIANGLE_FAN, 4, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, front);

glDisableClientState(GL_VERTEX_ARRAY);
glDisableClientState(GL_TEXTURE_COORD_ARRAY);

glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW);
glPopMatrix();
glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION);
glPopMatrix();	

}

Conclusion:

1. I can see each statements in CreateVideoTexture is getting executed properly and glGetError() returns 0
2. I can see updated buffer as unsigned char * in my callback function, and from there I call UpdateVideoTexture() and then glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT | GL_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT); and then RenderVideoTexture();

All these steps get executed properly, and I could not find any error by putting glGetError() after each statements. Still I could not see the video on background.

Would appreciate if anyone can give me any clue on whats happening here. Many thanks.

• check that texWidth and texHeight are power of two
• check with texturing disabled that you can see the triangle fan, in some pink color for example.
