The following question answers how to resize a printscreen taken with SharpDX by a power of two Resizing a DXGI Resource or Texture2D in SharpDX. I'm trying to resize the printscreen by a variable amount (e.g. 80% of original size - not necessarily a power of two). Right now I found "a way to make my goal work" by resizing the bitmap generated by the printscreen. I achieve this by first converting into a WicImage:
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Stopwatch stopWatchInstance = Stopwatch.StartNew();
//or Bitmap.save(new filestream)
var stream = File.OpenRead("c:\\test\\pc.png");
var test = DrawResizedImage(stream);
stopWatchInstance.Stop();
File.WriteAllBytes("c:\\test\\result.png", test.ToArray());
int previousCalculationTimeServer = (int)(stopWatchInstance.ElapsedMilliseconds % Int32.MaxValue);
}
MemoryStream DrawResizedImage(Stream fileName)
{
ImagingFactory wic = new WIC.ImagingFactory();
D2D.Factory d2d = new D2D.Factory();
FormatConverter image = CreateWicImage(wic, fileName);
var wicBitmap = new WIC.Bitmap(wic, image.Size.Width, image.Size.Height, WIC.PixelFormat.Format32bppPBGRA, WIC.BitmapCreateCacheOption.CacheOnDemand);
var target = new D2D.WicRenderTarget(d2d, wicBitmap, new D2D.RenderTargetProperties());
var bmpPicture = D2D.Bitmap.FromWicBitmap(target, image);
target.BeginDraw();
{
target.DrawBitmap(bmpPicture, new SharpDX.RectangleF(0, 0, target.Size.Width, target.Size.Height), 1.0f, D2D.BitmapInterpolationMode.Linear);
}
target.EndDraw();
var ms = new MemoryStream();
SaveD2DBitmap(wic, wicBitmap, ms);
return ms;
}
void SaveD2DBitmap(WIC.ImagingFactory wicFactory, WIC.Bitmap wicBitmap, Stream outputStream)
{
var encoder = new WIC.BitmapEncoder(wicFactory, WIC.ContainerFormatGuids.Png);
encoder.Initialize(outputStream);
var frame = new WIC.BitmapFrameEncode(encoder);
frame.Initialize();
frame.SetSize(wicBitmap.Size.Width, wicBitmap.Size.Height);
var pixelFormat = wicBitmap.PixelFormat;
frame.SetPixelFormat(ref pixelFormat);
frame.WriteSource(wicBitmap);
frame.Commit();
encoder.Commit();
}
WIC.FormatConverter CreateWicImage(WIC.ImagingFactory wicFactory, Stream stream)
{
var decoder = new WIC.PngBitmapDecoder(wicFactory);
var decodeStream = new WIC.WICStream(wicFactory, stream);
decoder.Initialize(decodeStream, WIC.DecodeOptions.CacheOnLoad);
var decodeFrame = decoder.GetFrame(0);
var scaler = new BitmapScaler(wicFactory);
scaler.Initialize(decodeFrame, 2000, 2000, SharpDX.WIC.BitmapInterpolationMode.Fant);
var test = (BitmapSource)scaler;
var converter = new WIC.FormatConverter(wicFactory);
converter.Initialize(test, WIC.PixelFormat.Format32bppPBGRA);
return converter;
}
Upon clicking on button, the above code resizes a bitmap (containing the printscreen) to 2000x2000. However, the above code is very slow, it takes about 200ms (not taking into account the fileread and filewrite time). I use BitmapScaler to do the resizing.
Does anyone know how to variably resize the output produced from the Resizing a DXGI Resource or Texture2D in SharpDX question, so the resizing becomes much faster? I tried to look for documentation to apply bitmapscaler directly to any of the objects in the answered code, but didn't succeed.
I've uploaded the above code can be found as a small Visual Studio Project which compiles
Here is a rewritten and commented version of your program that gets a video frame from the desktop using DXGI's Output Duplication, resizes it using any ratio using Direct2D, and saves it to a .jpeg file using WIC.
It works only in the GPU until the image is saved to a file (stream) using WIC. On my PC, I get something like 10-15 ms for the capture and resize, 30-40 ms for WIC save to file.
I've not used the D2D Scale effect I talked about in my comment because the ID2D1DeviceContext::DrawBitmap method can do resize that with various interpolation factors, without using any effect. But you can use the same code to apply Hardware accelerated effects.
Note some objects I create and dispose in button1_Click could be created in the constructor (like factories, etc.) and reused.
