VB.Net App shows Black screen while running on Windows 10
-
Hi, Please help me out from this! About my app: I have written an image capture program in visual basic(.net) using a windows 7 platform, and the app is working perfectly on my device when i tested it with a webcam made by the 'i-ball' brand (Windows uses the generic USB2.0 PC Camera driver to run the hardware). Problem; The problem that triggered when i tried to run this app on my client computer (running Windows 10 (Ver 1903) with a logitech webcam connected on it) is, the picture box which i used to display the frame shows nothing but a black background while executing the app. The indicator LED on the Logitech camera is glowing and nothing is happening in the foreground. Workarounds I tried: Initially, I was using the Aforge.net libraries to capture the image. Since i thought the libraries are outdated I tried using the EmguCV libraries and it is also responding with the same black background picturebox. The camera permissions are enabled and working. I tried executing the app on a Windows 10 (ver 1803) with my i-ball camera and it succeeded. Any idea what is happening under the hood? I am totally exhausted and it seems like I almost lost the project. :( Thanks in advance.

I could be totally wrong, but as I understand it, web cameras do not follow any kind of standard as far as their code interface goes. Most of them need proprietary software to read images from them.
The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer.
