CreateAVIFromSequence

Description 

 CreateAVIFromSequence(
   char *Avi_Destination,
   int  Frame_Int,
   bool  Def_Video
);

This function creates an AVI file from the sequence.

Parameters

char *Avi_Destination

Destination AVI file.

int Frame_Int

Frame interval.

0	Use acquisition time.
> 0	Frame interval in ms.
