I searched msdn but could not find much, I search the forum here and still not too much.

ConnectDriver

CreateWCWindow

StartRecording

FrameToClipboard

I don't know if this well help, but it's related to your request.

IrfanView has support for TWAIN scanners. I've not tried it with web cams, though.

VideoThumb 1.1 displays a little thumbnail of the webcam in such a way that AutoIt's PixelGetColor can read the image. (VideoThumb v2 uses DirectX or something that PixelGetColor can't read). I played with this program when I tried implementing a poor man's proximity sensor at one-tenth the cost of this device

I know how to do a web cam with vb but that is not what you want.

if you put up the VB code, i'm sure someone could translate

Well, Really it is just a mix. First i use autoit to capture screen. Then i ise vb to copy it into a picture box. I use PaintPicture() function to only cut the bit with the cam on it then i use a php script to copy it onto the internet. When viewing just download the pic and view with pic box. The computer with web cam can not be touched when it is running the program. This thing is pretty dumb but it works.

I wrote a script to monitor my construction cams a while back. What exactly are you trying to do. Maybe I can help.

[jacksont123]
