Returns or sets the height of the video display window.

Returns or sets the left position of the video display window in IC Imaging Control's window.

Returns the actual height of the video format of the live display. Due to the use of frame filters, this height can differ from the height of the video capture device's video format and the sink's format.

Returns the actual width of the video format of the live display. Due to the use of frame filters, this width can differ from the width of the video capture device's video format and the sink's format.

Returns or sets the top position of the video display window in IC Imaging Control's window.

Returns or sets the height and width of the video display window.

Returns or sets the top position of the video display window in IC Imaging Control's window.

Returns or sets the width of the video display window.

Returns or sets the zoom factor of the video display window.

This property suspends and restarts the current delivery of images.

[Deprecated] This property controls whether IC Imaging Control displays the buffer that was captured on LiveStop when LiveCaptureLastImage is enabled.

Indicates whether a live video is running, i.e. has been started with the LiveStart Method.

[Deprecated] Returns a list containing all available MediaStreamContainers.

This property controls the positions of OverlayBitmap objects in the image stream.

This property is used to return or set whether the overlay update event should be called by IC Imaging Control.

Returns the current reference time.

Returns the reference time at which the image stream was started.

Returns whether scrollbars are enabled or enables/disables scrollbars.

Returns whether a video signal is detected on the currently selected input channel of the selected video capture device.

Returns whether the current video capture device supports signal detection on its input ports.

Sets or retrieves the currently used sink. A sink is an object that receives the frames coming from the video capture device and either copies them to an ImageBuffers collection or saves them to a media stream file.

Returns the selected Videoformat object.

Returns a list of VideoFormatDesc objects describing all video formats supported by the current video capture device.

Returns a collection of available video formats for the current device and video norm.

Returns a collection of available video norms for the current device.

[Deprecated] This method writes a compressed AVI file to the computer's hard disk.

[Deprecated] This method stops writing an AVI file.

Displays the current image buffer in IC Imaging Control's window.

When the property ICImagingControl.LiveDisplay is False , then a call to ICImagingControl.DisplayImageBuffer displays the given buffer in the control window

[Deprecated] Creates a new instance of a FrameFilter from a FrameFilterInfo.

Creates a new ICImagingControl object.

This method tries to setup the image stream by connecting the device with the display and the sink and inserting frame filters and overlays.

This method starts the processing of images delivered by the video capture device.

Calling this method stops the display of a live image previously started with the LiveStart method.

Suspends a prepared image stream and switches it into prepared state.

Restores the device settings saved with ICImagingControl.SaveDeviceState.

Restores the device settings saved with ICImagingControl.SaveDeviceStateToFile.

This executes the sequence ICImagingControl.LoadDeviceStateFromFile then ICImagingControl.ShowDeviceSettingsDialog and when a device was opened ICImagingControl.SaveDeviceStateToFile while ignoring errors. Then it returns the state of ICImagingControl.DeviceValid.

[Deprecated] This method saves the current buffer as a .bmp file.

[Deprecated] This method saves a sequence of images as a sequence of single .bmp files.

[Deprecated] This method captures a still image from a live video stream.

[Deprecated] This method captures a sequence of still images from a live video stream and stores the images in a list of internal buffers. The images can be saved to individual files using the ICImagingControl.MemorySaveImageSequence method.

Saves the currently opened device and its settings to a string.

Saves the currently opened device and its settings to a file.

This method opens a video capture device selection dialog.

This method opens a dialog to adjust all properties of the currently opened video capture device.

The DeviceListChanged event is raised when the list of available video capture devices (obtainable through Devices ) has changed.

This event is called if the video capture device is no longer valid; for example if it was unplugged.

[Deprecated] This event is called each time a frame has been copied completely to the internal ring buffer.

This event is called after the LivePrepare was called.

This event is called after a new frame has been delivered by the video capture device.
