Microsoft Camcorder Video

• FourCC: CGDI
• Company: Microsoft
• Samples: http://samples.mplayerhq.hu/V-codecs/CGDI/
• References: http://support.microsoft.com/support/office/content/office97/camcorder.asp

According to Microsoft's documentation, Camcorder Video allows users of Microsoft Office 97 to record video of their desktop. This implies that the video coding format might be a screen capture codec (and should be classified as such in this wiki).

Each frame consists of records containing GDI commands:

 bytes 0-3   size of record including this field
 bytes 4-5   GDI command code
 bytes 6-... GDI command arguments

I think command codes may have relation to EMF drawing codes and arguments are the same that are passed to GDI drawing functions.
