u cant u must use apis or lib to access the webcam device and drivers
avicap32 (old > buggy), directx, directshow, avi > use google
Everything uses an API... lol.
Anyway, an easy one you can use Aforge, it has a callback ready for you.

The library uses DirectShow, which is the "best" way.
And, talking is faster than doing it when you're talking about DirectShow, and it is shorter than Directshow itself, so, why not.
if u dont care about the size yes for malware no
i shrink the webcam class to 10 lines > apis and callback
you're talking about avicap?
I find it very old and somewhat fragile... but
me too

but small and still do the work very well 😁
I was talking about the aforge lib, which i take also like 10~ lines of code to record webcam frames too.
The reason i say DirectShow is because everyone else in other forums discourages the use of avicap32 because of being old and "fragile, not flexible"...

Couple of lines? You talk like it's black and white... lol, show me a couple of lines in DirectShow lib.
