take picture from webcam c#

Question

I\'m streaming video to my Window Form with DirectShowLib. I also want to save image when i press button \"Save\" for example. How to get picture from webcam with DirectShow

Answer 1

DirectShow.NET Samples are there: http://sourceforge.net/projects/directshownet/files/DirectShowSamples/2010-February/ The following sample demoes the requested function:

Samples\VMR9\vMR9Snapper ------------------------ This sample shows how to capture bitmaps from VMR9.

Having it working with other renderer might require small code modifications.

The question also discussed a multitude of times at MSDN Forums, and on CodeProject, e.g. how to save bmp file from IVMRWindowlessControl9->GetCurrentImage().
