Examples

The following example initializes the MediaCaptureInitializationSettings. Call InitializeAsync with these settings to initialize a MediaCapture object.

private void InitCaptureSettings()
{
    _captureInitSettings = null;
    _captureInitSettings = new Windows.Media.Capture.MediaCaptureInitializationSettings();
    _captureInitSettings.AudioDeviceId = "";
    _captureInitSettings.VideoDeviceId = "";
    _captureInitSettings.StreamingCaptureMode = Windows.Media.Capture.StreamingCaptureMode.AudioAndVideo;
    _captureInitSettings.PhotoCaptureSource = Windows.Media.Capture.PhotoCaptureSource.VideoPreview;
    
    if (_deviceList.Count > 0)
        _captureInitSettings.VideoDeviceId = _deviceList[0].Id;
}

Remarks

For how-to guidance on initializing and shutting down the MediaCapture object, see Basic photo, video, and audio capture with MediaCapture.

Note

When MediaCaptureSharingMode::SharedReadOnly is used, some of the MediaCaptureInitializationSettings properties can't be configured. See SharingMode for details.
