Class AgingBlock

Namespace
VisioForge.Core.MediaBlocks.VideoProcessing
Assembly
VisioForge.Core.dll

Aging video effect block that simulates vintage film deterioration and weathering effects. This block applies realistic aging effects to video content including film scratches, dust particles, color degradation, sepia toning, and temporal fluctuations to create authentic vintage film appearance. Features configurable scratch density, dust intensity, color shift parameters, and flickering effects. Essential for creative video production, historical documentaries, artistic filters, and retro-style content creation requiring authentic aged film aesthetics. Implements the VisioForge.Core.MediaBlocks.MediaBlock. Implements the VisioForge.Core.MediaBlocks.IMediaBlockInternals. Implements the IDisposable.

Methods

Build()

Constructs and initializes the aging effect filter and its associated GStreamer elements. This method creates the filter with the specified settings, establishes input and output pads, and prepares the block for applying vintage film deterioration effects to video content.

public override bool Build()

Returns

bool

true if the filter was successfully built and configured; false if initialization failed.

CleanUp()

Releases all resources and performs cleanup operations for this aging effect block. This method disposes of the GStreamer elements and resets the build state.

public void CleanUp()

Dispose(bool)

Releases unmanaged and - optionally - managed resources.

protected override void Dispose(bool disposing)

Parameters

disposing bool

true to release both managed and unmanaged resources; false to release only unmanaged resources.

GetCore()

Gets the core BaseElement wrapper that provides additional functionality around the GStreamer aging filter element.

public BaseElement GetCore()

Returns

BaseElement

The BaseElement wrapper instance that encapsulates the GStreamer aging filter.

GetElement()

Gets the underlying GStreamer element that performs the aging effect processing.

public Element GetElement()

Returns

Element

The GStreamer Element instance representing the aging filter.

IsAvailable()

Determines whether this media block is available. Correct NuGet SDK redist should be included into your project.

public static bool IsAvailable()

Returns

bool

true if this media block is available; otherwise, false.

IMediaBlockInternals.SetContext(MediaBlocksPipeline)

Associates this aging effect block with a pipeline and initializes its internal context. This method is called internally when the block is added to a pipeline.

void IMediaBlockInternals.SetContext(MediaBlocksPipeline pipeline)

Parameters

pipeline MediaBlocksPipeline

The MediaBlocksPipeline instance that will manage this block.
