Here’s the source to the WriteableBitmap sample I showed at Mix.  The sample uses WriteableBitmap to take a “snapshot” of the running video to make a thumbnail.  Click on the image below to run the sample.  When running the sample, click on the running video to create a thumbnail.  You can find the video for this sample here.

    Hi,

    There is a strange behaviour with the writeablebitmap. If I assign the writeablebitmap directly to the source of an image, it works (well, depending on the render tree, but that’s another problem) :

    WriteableBitmap wb = new WriteableBitmap(30, 40, PixelFormats.Bgr32);

    wb.Render(this.sourceImage, new MatrixTransform());

    image1.Source = wb;

    But if I try to read directly the value of the WriteableBitmap pixels, it throws an exception :

    WriteableBitmap wb = new WriteableBitmap(30, 40, PixelFormats.Bgr32);

    wb.Render(this.sourceImage, new MatrixTransform());

    int color = wb[0];

    Is it a normal behaviour or is it because the writeablebitmap isn’t yet fully implemented ?
