Hello, I've done a search on the web to find a way to display a webcam
with WPF, but I've find nothing easy.
I also would like to capture images coming from the camera.
Can WPF help me in this?

Giuseppe

WPF can help you in rendering video, but not for getting the video to
render.

For Vista+, maybe look at Windows Media Foundation.
For older OS support, maybe DirectShow.
