Probably the most common way to do it is to use Direct Show. This can seem
difficult to get into at first but isn't actually that difficult to get
something going. I stuggled with it until I read the book "Programmin g
Microsoft Direct Show for digital video and television". Once I got that
book it all seemed quite easy. It is written for C++ but that doesn't make a
huge amount of difference. The main difference is that with C++ you can use
the libraries for Direct Show but with C# you need to translate them
manually. There's some websites around that have done most of the hard work
for you so a google search would be a good idea.

BTW, this is one area where C# will give you a distinct advantage over
vb.net.
