Examples
// Example 1: Zoom into the center of a 1920x1080 frame
var zoomIn = new MFPPan
{
StartX = 0,
StartY = 0,
StartWidth = 1920,
StartHeight = 1080,
StopX = 480, // Center horizontally (1920/4)
StopY = 270, // Center vertically (1080/4)
StopWidth = 960, // Half width
StopHeight = 540 // Half height
};
// Example 2: Pan from left to right across the frame
var panRight = new MFPPan
{
StartX = 0,
StartY = 0,
StartWidth = 1280, // Show left 2/3 of frame
StartHeight = 1080,
StopX = 640, // Move to right side
StopY = 0,
StopWidth = 1280, // Show right 2/3 of frame
StopHeight = 1080
};
// Example 3: Ken Burns effect - slight zoom with diagonal pan
var kenBurns = new MFPPan
{
StartX = 100,
StartY = 50,
StartWidth = 1720,
StartHeight = 980,
StopX = 200,
StopY = 150,
StopWidth = 1520,
StopHeight = 855
};
Remarks
The MFPPan structure defines parameters for implementing pan and scan effects on video frames. This effect allows you to create smooth camera movements across a video frame, zooming into specific regions or panning from one area to another. It's commonly used for:
- Creating Ken Burns effects on still images - Focusing on specific regions of interest in video - Simulating camera movements in post-production - Converting between aspect ratios with controlled framing - Creating dynamic presentations from static content
The effect interpolates between a start rectangle (StartX, StartY, StartWidth, StartHeight) and a stop rectangle (StopX, StopY, StopWidth, StopHeight) over the duration of the effect. The interpolation creates smooth motion from the start position/zoom to the end position/zoom.
Fields
StartHeight
The start height.
public int StartHeightField Value
Remarks
The height of the visible area at the start of the effect in pixels. Smaller values create a zoomed-in effect, while the full frame height shows the entire vertical span. Must be positive and <= frame height.
StartWidth
The start width.
public int StartWidthField Value
Remarks
The width of the visible area at the start of the effect in pixels. Smaller values create a zoomed-in effect, while the full frame width shows the entire horizontal span. Must be positive and <= frame width.
StartX
The start X.
public int StartXField Value
Remarks
The horizontal starting position (left edge) of the pan rectangle in pixels. This defines where the visible area begins at the start of the effect. Value should be between 0 and (frame width - StartWidth).
StartY
The start Y.
public int StartYField Value
Remarks
The vertical starting position (top edge) of the pan rectangle in pixels. This defines where the visible area begins at the start of the effect. Value should be between 0 and (frame height - StartHeight).
StopHeight
The stop height.
public int StopHeightField Value
Remarks
The height of the visible area at the end of the effect in pixels. If different from StartHeight, creates a zoom in/out effect during the pan. Should maintain aspect ratio with StopWidth for undistorted results.
StopWidth
The stop width.
public int StopWidthField Value
Remarks
The width of the visible area at the end of the effect in pixels. If different from StartWidth, creates a zoom in/out effect during the pan. Smaller than StartWidth = zoom in, larger = zoom out.
StopX
The stop X.
public int StopXField Value
Remarks
The horizontal ending position (left edge) of the pan rectangle in pixels. This defines where the visible area ends at the completion of the effect. The effect will smoothly interpolate from StartX to StopX.
StopY
The stop Y.
public int StopYField Value
Remarks
The vertical ending position (top edge) of the pan rectangle in pixels. This defines where the visible area ends at the completion of the effect. The effect will smoothly interpolate from StartY to StopY.
