MultiCam and DirectShow
MultiCam is the device driver for Euresys video capture hardware.
The Euresys source filter uses MultiCam to operate the Picolo boards. MultiCam must be installed on the host computer for proper operation of the Euresys DirectShow filters.
Image Acquisition
For image acquisition with Picolo series, it is not required to have any knowledge of MultiCam or its operation. The Euresys source filter provides a total control on the capture hardware and allows optimal usage.
Advanced Operations
For advanced operations like managing I/O lines, the Euresys source filter provides objects (IMCBoard) representing such hardware features. They are accessible through an enumerator (GetBoardEnum).
The IMCBoard interface gives access to MultiCam board parameters. Refer to MultiCam documentation for detailed information about those parameters and their usage.
