Support for Loading Video file

[ghost]

I modified the example code to be able to load videofiles directly in Matlab.
Hope anyone else finds this helpful, so I include the diff here: https://gist.github.com/922938

It would be better if you at least post patches on gist ( https://gist.github.com/ ) and link them here. The standard way to contribute projects on github is to fork them ( http://help.github.com/fork-a-repo/ ).

Thanks gionn, I am very new to this git stuff and did not know where to put it. ^^'

Hey there,
Could you explain a little bit more how to use your "patch"

Indeed, I have manually change all the .m files according to the .diff file.
And I don't know how to make the TLD able to read videos.

Thank you in advance

[ghost]

if you run the demo as usual matlab should ask you to open a videofile. any videofile supported by the matlab videoreader will work. :)

[Sballest]

Do you mean run the demo by launching run_tld.m in matlab?

Also do I need the " Image acquisition toolbox" for make it work?

[ghost]

yes, exactly.

hmm... the matlab reference doesn't really say to which toolbox the video function belong. i only tested it on 2011b. maybe you have a outdated version?

[Sballest]

Yep R2010a

But, strangely, when I launch run_tld, nobody ask me anything...

May you send me your modified m file (or maybe your whole "TLD_opensource") ?

I tried to apply the patch out of the programs rootfolder (the same in which run_TLD.m can be found), but i get some errors:

marh@mypc:/zk00006-OpenTLD-8a6934d> patch -i tldvideofile.diff

Any ideas?

hmm.... maybe opentld has changed a little since i created the patch.
try applying the changes manually, it's just a couple of lines. :)

nice! i applied the changes manually, and it works beautifully. i just have to make sure to give it an approved file type, and it works great :). nice patch!

Ghost is a deleted account now... Is there still code to load a video directly?
