​

You can download sample project from GitHub.

​

Select video source

​

1. Get list of available video capture devices, fill combobox

foreach (var device in VideoCapture1.Video_CaptureDevicesInfo)
{
    cbVideoInputDevice.Items.Add(device.Name);                
}

2. Select device

VideoCapture1.Video_CaptureDevice = cbVideoInputDevice.Text;

3. Get list of available video formats and frame rates, fill combobox

var deviceItem = VideoCapture1.Video_CaptureDevicesInfo.First(device => device.Name == cbVideoInputDevice.Text);
if (deviceItem == null)
{
    return;
}

cbVideoInputFormat.Items.Clear();
foreach (string format in deviceItem.VideoFormats)
{
    cbVideoInputFormat.Items.Add(format);
}

cbFramerate.Items.Clear(); 
foreach (string frameRate in deviceItem.VideoFrameRates) 
{ 
    cbVideoFrameRate.Items.Add(frameRate); 
}

4. Select video format

VideoCapture1.Video_CaptureDevice_Format = cbVideoInputFormat.Text;

or automatically choose best video format.

VideoCapture1.Video_CaptureDevice_Format_UseBest = true;

5. Select frame rate

VideoCapture1.Video_CaptureDevice_FrameRate = Convert.ToDouble(cbVideoFrameRate.Text);

6. Select needed video input (configure crossbar) if needed

Select audio source

​

1. Use video capture device as audio source, enumerate formats, fill combobox

VideoCapture1.Video_CaptureDevice_IsAudioSource = true;

cbAudioInputFormat.Items.Clear();
cbAudioInputLine.Items.Clear();

var deviceItem = VideoCapture1.Video_CaptureDevicesInfo.First(device => device.Name == cbVideoInputDevice.Text);
if (deviceItem != null)
{
    foreach (string format in deviceItem.AudioFormats)
    {
        cbAudioInputFormat.Items.Add(format);
    }
}

or get list of available audio capture devices,select device, fill combobox

foreach (var device in VideoCapture1.Audio_CaptureDevicesInfo)
{
    cbAudioInputDevice.Items.Add(device.Name);
}

VideoCapture1.Audio_CaptureDevice = cbAudioInputDevice.Text;

cbAudioInputFormat.Items.Clear();
cbAudioInputLine.Items.Clear()

var deviceItem = VideoCapture1.Audio_CaptureDevicesInfo.First(device => device.Name == cbAudioInputDevice.Text); 
if (deviceItem != null)
{    
    foreach (string format in deviceItem.Formats) 
    {
        cbAudioInputFormat.Items.Add(format); 
    } 

    foreach (string line in deviceItem.Lines) 
    { 
        cbAudioInputLine.Items.Add(line); 
    }
}

2. Select format

VideoCapture1.Audio_CaptureDevice_Format = cbAudioInputFormat.Text;

or automatically choose best audio format

VideoCapture1.Audio_CaptureDevice_Format_UseBest = true;

3. Select input (line)

VideoCapture1.Audio_CaptureDevice_Line = cbAudioInputLine.Text;
