Hi all,
I need to caputure still images from two connect USB cameras and I cannot find the current API to do this. I need pure C/C++ and some examples or documentation. Currently I'm looking into mfmediacapture but I'm not sure if this is the correct way and how to use this API...
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks a lot.
