Hello,
This is in concept exactly what I want to do. I'm using a Epiphan VGA2PCIe frame grabber. However, I'm hoping to use a free Activex Object. I'm not sure of the redistribution rights of the Videocapx lite. Has anyone found an ActiveX object that works for Directshow compatible frame grabbers or USB cameras, etc. that is free or open source, etc? I think that the MSVidCtl *may* be able to do it but I'm finding the help a bit convoluted. All I want is to see what I see in My Computer > Scanners & Cameras > VGA2PCI V2P81125 preview on my LabVIEW VI. I had initially thought that this would be very easy and that the ActiveX container would be just the thing. But now I've found that every Directshow ActiveX object that I've found costs money. Any tips would be apprecaited.
Thanks,
-Dan
I posted a VI to capture video and sound and write it to avi here

It seems to work fine.
