So I'd like to capture an image from a webcam every 30 seconds or so... &nbsp;I'd like for it to run as a service automatically...<br />
<br />
Can anyone point me in the right direction or paste some code samples? &nbsp;Just as to how to capture the CURRENT image on the webcam?<br />

Using C++/DirectShow to capture an IMAGE from a webcam

C++ is an intermediate-level general-purpose programming language, not to be confused with C or C#. It was developed as a set of extensions to the C programming language to improve type-safety and add support for automatic resource management, object-orientation, generic programming, and exception handling, among other features.
