Capture picture

Hello,
I need to write a program to capture a picture from a digital camera. I
asked the question about a week ago and got some good responses. I found
another problem though. The video card is RGB format and must stay that way
to meet govt. standards. I have tried some of the sample code out there that
was suggested, but none of it works with RGB video feed, and from what I have
read on the microsoft documents, I can not use the built in video tools in
windows. I am more than a little lost. This is the first time I have tried
to do anything like this and am open to any suggestion. Thanks, Brian

The pc has an Hatachi digital camera with a RGB cable that plugs into a video
card (flashpoint). I need to capture a picture from the camera.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
