RE: how to play the video captured from a USB camera

You're going to need to start with the driver for the camera - otherwise,
your application might run into problems finding where the video is.

Next, search (i.e. Google) into Twain Aquire sources.

Can someone instruct me the basic algorithm please?

Go onto SourceForge and get DirectShowNet. It includes an example of this.
You do not have to program the driver directly -- Windows standardizes the
interface to it.
