Class MirrorBlock

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

Video mirror effect block that creates reflective and symmetrical visual effects. This block applies various mirroring transformations to video content including horizontal flipping, vertical flipping, and combinations for creating symmetrical patterns and kaleidoscope-like effects. Features multiple mirror modes for different artistic and practical applications including left-right mirroring, top-bottom mirroring, and quad-mirroring. Essential for creative video production, artistic filters, webcam applications, and visual effects requiring symmetrical transformations. Implements the VisioForge.Core.MediaBlocks.MediaBlock. Implements the VisioForge.Core.MediaBlocks.IMediaBlockInternals. Implements the IDisposable.

Methods

Build()

Constructs and initializes the mirror filter and its associated GStreamer elements. This method creates the filter with the specified mirror mode, establishes input and output pads, and prepares the block for creating symmetrical and reflective visual transformations.

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 mirror 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 mirror filter element.

public BaseElement GetCore()

Returns

BaseElement

The BaseElement wrapper instance that encapsulates the GStreamer mirror filter.

GetElement()

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

public Element GetElement()

Returns

Element

The GStreamer Element instance representing the mirror 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 mirror 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.
