    WebCam Capture Image under Win7

    Hi. I tried to code using WIA, and it is working fine.
    But when I tried my codes under Win 7 OS, it failed to capture.
    It seems that it is only working on XP. I also tried some code sample found here. And still failed under win7.

    Is there any good link where I can get some info to work with regarding to web cam capture...

    I tried also Avicap.dll

    WIA doesn't work beyond XP. Vista and Win 7 have the Portable Device API to deal with cameras and other devices. Either use that or use DirectX. Check the web for samples. Portable Device API samples, last time I checked, were quite rare.
