i want write program tablet using visual studio express 2013 (for windows desktop). tablet running windows 8.1 pro.
for compatibility , ease of programming, continue working in vs express 2013 windows desktop.
i want program use device's camera capture functionality. hope simple using libraries/apis known. however, of documentation , forum posts have read far suggest wia (windows image acquisition) library use desktops , windows media capture must used windows 8.1.
is there better way?
all need specify captureelement , button capture picture shown below
<captureelement x:name="cap1" height="300" width="450"/> <button content="take photo" x:name="btncapture" horizontalalignment="stretch" verticalalignment="stretch" click="btncapture_click"/> here code behind button :
private async void btncapture_click(object sender, routedeventargs e) { var _mediacapture = new mediacapture(); await _mediacapture.initializeasync(); cap1.source = _mediacapture; await _mediacapture.startpreviewasync(); } remember need use async , await keywords process asynchronous .
