View 1 RepliesI have a logitech webcam that I use to take pictures of customers to submit to a server/database. Utilizing AVICAP32.DLL calls, I was able to modify my VB.NET program to take these pictures via a button in my program.
My question is, it would me more convenient to my intended users to click the webcam button, instead of clicking on the button in my program.
Is this possible to do in VB.NET? and how can I do this?
If this is not possible to do with my logitech webcam than is there a Microsoft Webcam that can do this?
I am working on enable my web application to start and view my webcam I reach a good point, sort of, but still facing manay problems, I am going to paste the code that I have obtained over the net[code]....

View 1 RepliesI use VS2008 with Visual Basic and VB.Net. I am writing an application to save videos from a webcam, and I've found several examples that provide the basic functionality, so that I can now start and stop the webcam, and save a video as a .avi file. However my interface is still clunky: when video capture starts following
SendMessage(hWnd, WM_CAP_SEQUENCE, 0, 0)
then the window is locked and the [Stop Capture] button doesn't function, so I need to exit the window to stop capture.The documentation at Video Capture [URL] has a lot of methods that look useful, and I think that I need to link up a callback function to allow [Stop Capture] to function, but I can't figure out from this documentation how to send a WM_CAP_SET_CALLBACK_VIDEOSTREAM message to do this. I don't know how to control the formats so that I generate video files that are concise enough for web use - changing the frame rate or dimensions seems to have absolutely no effect Is there any general tutorial that will cover all of the messages in AVICAP32.dll, and show me how to implement them in VB?
How can I have my VB.net application take a picture of me from my webcam? Nothing too complicated,
View 2 RepliesI'm trying to take a picture from my webcam when the user clicks a button on a Form on a Windows XP Machine.
I tried going through several threads, but couldn't find the solution I was looking for. Most of the threads involved matters (and code) too complex for my requirements, or had bugs when I reproduced the code in my editor window which I was unable to resolve due to my lack of knowledge in I/O related programming.
So far the simplest solution I could find was this one:[URl]...but after using his solution in my editor, it says 'type WIA is not defined', despite adding a reference to Microsoft Windows Image Acquisition 1.01 Type Library.
I wrote some software that use the AVICAP32.dll to do a spot of video capture.All was going well till they went and bought a laptop with a built in webcam.Now my software picks one a random and uses that for the video (somewhat annoying to say the least) Can anyone tell me how to pick a camera to use,I suspect it is related to DVM_DIALOG but my experiments have not been too successful.

I jus tneed to capture an image from the WebCam, rest all processing of the would be handled by my .NET code.
I am playing around with using a webcam in a program to have the program automatically target key things within the webcams frame. I was just wondering how I would go about getting the webcam to be "used" within the program.

View 6 RepliesI'm currently working on a project which is basically Server-Client based. Client is standalone VB executable file and Server is web based.The program is supposed to use webcam as video capture device, stream video footages to server (on website - live feed) and allows users to manually save captured videos into their computer.Thats basically the brief description of my system. I'm starting off working with VB right now and website after I'm done with VB.I'm new to VB, this would be my 1st project on it. I've looked for available sources online and found several VB apps which lets me capture image file through my webcam. Also on MSDN forum, i found recommendations on using "DCAM Server" to stream videos on website but I'm still not sure of how to configure the settings to make it work properly, and of course, don't have a proper website for it to work with yet atm. Also realise I'll need to integrate some .dll files or activeX functions to use video capture function. I don't really know how to use these yet rite now.

I Mean, The Program Can Succesfully Record A Video To My Local Disk, But It Doesnt Preview On A Picturebox.
But This Isn't So Important, I Don't Know If I Can Change The Resolution Of That Captured Video?
I Mean, I Have An HD Camera, But It Doesnt Record On HD, It Just Records The Right Top 640x480 rectangle of screen. So I Mean It Doesnt Even Records Me, It Records My Back...
Is there any code to test the webcam if it's on or off ?. i mean, i need a code that telling me if my webcam is on.

View 4 RepliesI would like to acquire the images of a webcam in the background based on an event.I know there is a possibility to display the webcam stream directly in a picturebox but I want to process every single image and display them then.
The best would be if there is an event that triggers every time a webcam images is received. That event should include the image (in some kind of format).
I need to show video in a picturebox, and when a button is pressed, capture the frame. I am making a desktop qr reader. I have the qr reader completed and working. my issue is my camera now. I would prefer something that actually works, and doesn't have severe memory leak issues, and doesn't throw an exception after it's first or second use. Would AviCap32 or Direct Show be better for what I want? Which would capture the image fastest, without causing exceptions? I tried using an open source solution called webcam_capture.dll, and it worked at first, but now I am getting an exception that I dont know how to fix. I'm assuming this goes in vbGeneral, and not the Interop and Upgrade. Most examples I have seen, use interop, so I wasn't sure. I would prefer not to use WIA. I have attempted it, and it doesn't work quite right on my computer, and this application will be distributed.

I need a hint or sample source code is much better for my project. Here is the idea, I am creating a simple program that can record a video using a webcam as a surveillance camera. I need to record it continuous and every hour the capturde video will store/save to my drive. I am not that good in webcam/camera manipulation in vb.net.
View 1 RepliesI would really like to get some VB.net program code for still image capturing using a Webcam.I've searched the web for quite a while now but did not get any codes. Currently i have a code for capturing video. In that code an image can be captured, but only with 640 X 480 resolution (Maximum Video resolution for my web camera). The WM_CAP_DLG_VIDEOFORMAT dialog box only allows the resolution to be set up to 640 X 480.
