Periphery.Camera.Avalonia

A live camera preview control for Avalonia. Bind CameraPreview to a DeviceInfo, and the control runs the capture loop, reconnects after an unplug, and marshals frames to the UI thread.

dotnet add package Periphery.Camera.Avalonia --prerelease
<Window xmlns="https://github.com/avaloniaui"
        xmlns:cam="https://periphery.dev/camera-avalonia">
  <Grid RowDefinitions="Auto,*,Auto">
    <ComboBox x:Name="DevicePicker" Grid.Row="0" .../>

    <cam:CameraPreview Grid.Row="1"
                       Name="Preview"
                       Device="{Binding ElementName=DevicePicker, Path=SelectedItem}"
                       MaxResolution="1280,720"/>

    <TextBlock Grid.Row="2"
               Text="{Binding ElementName=Preview, Path=StatusDescription}"/>
  </Grid>
</Window>

Properties

Property Default Purpose
Device null The camera to preview. null disconnects.
MaxResolution 1280×720 Largest resolution to open
IsLive (read-only) false true while frames are flowing
StatusDescription (read-only) "Idle." Status text for display
LastError (read-only) null Most recent open or capture error

Formats

The control opens the largest resolution, then the highest frame rate, among the formats it can display: BGRA32, RGBA32, MJPEG, NV12, and YUY2. A camera that offers none of these fails to open, and LastError names its formats.

Like Periphery.Camera, the control supports Windows and Linux.
