User's Guide

This sample application demonstrates the following tasks related to audio and video capture:

• Capture to a file
• Live preview
• Allocation of the capture file
• Display of device property pages
• Device enumeration
• Stream control

Beginning in DirectX9, AMCap supports MPEG-2 program stream input, for example from analog TV Tuners that stream MPEG-2 content. A third-party DirectShow-compatible MPEG-2 decoder is still required to decode the streams.
