METHOD TO CREATE A LIVE VIDEO STREAM FROM SHARED MEMORY OBJECT CONTAINING IMAGE BUFFER

Abstract:

A method, apparatus, and computer program product provide for generating a video stream from a shared memory object containing image data from an image buffer. In the context of a method, the method generates a shared memory object from an image buffer comprising image data associated with a first iteration of two or more iterations of a graphics application, wherein the image data comprises data from at least one pixel related to the first iteration. The method generates converted image data based on a conversion of the pixel data in a first data format to converted image data in a second data format and generates an image file comprising the converted image data for the first iteration. The method also outputs the image file for the first iteration to a user device in conjunction with at least another image file from another iteration of the two or more iterations to provide a video stream of the two or more iterations.
