Introduction
There are basically two techniques used to capture the video images from video
devices such as a PC camera, digital camera, and scanner. They are the
Twain:Acquire•••
technique and the
DirectShow
technique (previously called
VFW
).
The most obvious characteristics of the
Twain
technique is that it displays the
