I used this source code with VB6 and 
when I made the .exe file and try to 
run it with my video capture card, I 
see only a blue screen. The program 
detected my driver but no picture. 
Whats wrong?

Well, if you use a program that comes 
with your capture card, and when it 
first starts, or if it has no input to 
display, it will give you a screen with 
blue in it, you need to have something 
hooked into your capture card in order 
for it to display anything besides blue.

I tried to let the capturing running in 
the background and used a command 
button to stop the capturing.  So, I 
set CAP_PARAMS.fYield to true.  
However, the program will be hanged up. 
 Do you know why???
CAP_PARAMS.fYield = 
True
Thanks.

If you have a vidcap device, you should 
also check out the free code that is 
available on www.shrinkwrapvb.com for 
VB video capture.

I'm now using this code as sort of a 
foundation to build for a video 
capturing program to suit me needs. I 
added a file open function and now I'm 
looking into a time lapse function. I 
need to take a snap shot every period 
of time and save them in the HD. Also I 
need to creat a second view port to 
preview the capture shots. Any help of 
these matters would be great. Thanks in 
advance

I'm using a PCI Win/TV card
Why is it 
not refreshing very often?
I had a 
blue screen to start with.
I chose 
Tuner as the input and it was blue. so 
i closed vb, opened my cards tv program 
then closed it and went back to vb and 
it was working fine (apart from it 
being slow to refresh)

i've tryed with a matrox rainbow runner 
and at a first glance it works finne. 
However i think it was refreshing at 10 
o 12 FPS. The scaling feature is very 
usfull.

I have a question.  I set the hWnd to 
that of a Picture box that I added to 
the form.  I am unable however, to use 
the SavePicture keyword on the Picture 
Box.  Could someone please tell me how 
I could get the SavePicture command to 
work with this code?

Well, i would just like to say that 
this was the foot in the door that i 
needed. i am going to make a video-chat 
program, and this is what made it all 
possible. thank you, whoever made this 
code.
PS, if you want in on the 
program, let me know, i could use some 
help in the sockets programming. 
Spokehedz@dsl.telocity.com is my e-mail

Hi, great code.  I used to have it 
working just fine under WinME, but now

That's quite a neat program, but i was 
wondering if you could make it do 
something a little more than to just 
capture video. y'know, even editting 
and stuff. do you know of any video 
editting program (Freee ofcourse;)?
