About BasicVideo
BasicVideo is a set of components for fast video capture, recording and playback. The library allows very fast complex video manipulations with zero lines of program code.
BasicVideo is a cheaper subset of VideoLab components designed for those developers that need a low cost, robust and flexible capture, recording and playback functionality without complex video processing analysis and manipulation.
Here are some examples of what can be done with BasicVideo
Capture and record video and audio.

Play recorded video.

BasicVideo comes in 3 versions a VCL - Delphi / C++ Builder version, MFC compatible Visual C++, and .NET 2.0 version, compatible with Visual Studio 2005, Visual Studio 2008, Visual Basic.NET, C# and J#.
The Delphi / C++ Builder version is a set of native VCL components.
The Visual C++ version is a set of native Visual C++ classes (components).
The .NET 2.0 version is a set of managed .NET 2.0 components. The .NET version has the same performance as the native versions, and supports all the Microsoft .NET 2.0 languages including Visual Basic, C#, J# and C++/CLI.
Due to its unique design, BasicVideo is implemented the same way in Managed .NET and Win32 environments. The code to control the component from VB.NET, C++/CLI, C#, and J#, Visual C++ MFC, Delphi, and C++ Builder is almost identical. This allows the developers to migrate and share code between the different environments thus significantly improving the productivity.

The latest version of BasicVideo supports the old fashion Win32 API( Video For Windows ( VFW ), VCM, WaveAPI, ACM), the newer DirectShow, and even allows if needed any mixture of them. The developer can choose to go with any of them, to use all, or can switch from one to the other at any moment. The components hide the complexity of all of the approaches, and make them look almost identical from the users prospective.
Here is the full list of the supported technologies:
Win32 API:
- Video For Windows ( VFW )
- Video Compression Manager ( VCM )
- Audio Compression Manager ( ACM )
- WaveAPI
DirectX:
