I have seen that but i am wondering if there is a easier way to do it, because my program i want to use that in is already cluttered enough. But if there is no simpier way then i will just do that.

Oh, well I'm sorry, but I can't help you for that, because my dream is managing hardware through software. I wish I could though!

I made a similar post some time back as well: viewtopic.php?f=32&t=2428&p=15281#p15281

It looks like using capCreateCaptureWindow and SendMessage is probably the simplest way of doing it right now.
