Re: best way to get a still image from a webcam?

Use WIA (Windows Image Acquisition) for still image.

But how can i get images without a new dialog opened?
how can i get them automatically without any interference
with the user?

The problem is, that this way i can't get the higher
resolution which is only available when capturing a still
image.

Why not use WIA !? as "Lionel Schiepers" recommeded !?
