Add the VideoView to the main window (Optional)​

If we want the video preview in your application, you need to add the VideoView control. You can add it in the XAML code or the code-behind file.

Let's add it to the XAML code.

Add the new namespace.

xmlns:wpf="clr-namespace:VisioForge.Core.UI.WPF;assembly=VisioForge.Core.UI.WPF"

Add the VideoView control.

<wpf:VideoView 
    Width="640" 
    Height="480" 
    Margin="10,10,0,0" 
    HorizontalAlignment="Left" 
    VerticalAlignment="Top"/>

Add the required redist packages​

Depending on the platform, product, and used engine, you may need to add additional redist packages.
