Extract a frame from the stream

[bird12358]

Hello,

I am trying to extract a frame from a stream I play. I know a snapshot function already exists on the librarie but the problem is that this function records the frame on the computer.
I would like to record the frame on a local variable to use it and to process it after.
Is there a function that can do that on the LibVLC?

Thank you in advance.

Please I need an answer. Can I extract images from the stream I am reading for external processing?

You need to write your own video filter plugin.
