Hi experts;
My question is not directly related to directshow but you may help me
because you are expert at video programming. I want to capture video
or snapshots from a camera named "LPI" ( a camera used for
astro-imaging ). I'm not so familiar with directshow, so I found an
activex named "videocap pro" that can accomplish my capturing tasks.
Besides that I can easily use flash media server(FMS) for capturing
and braodcasting live video over the Internet.
FMS does not let me to change camera specific settings ( ans also some
video settings ), so I just want to use the activex for changing the
video and camera setting and prefer to use FMS as the capture
application ( I prefer a client side flash palyer rather than Windows
Media Player ). But as you know at any time the driver can just serve
on application. And besides that, if I change camera settings using
the activex, after disconnecting and connecting via FMS to continue
capturing, the parameters set by means of the activex are not saved,
the capturing continues with default dirver settings! How can I solve
this problme. How can I change and save the camera settings ( driver
specific parameters ) via one application and use them for capturing
via another application. I'm really overwhelmed and it is really your
favor if you help me to solve the problem. Sorry for this long
explanation.

Thanks in advance
