A full clone of Microsoft Vidcap32.exe written entirely in VB5 and with full, commented source code.

They said it couldn't be done. Well here it is. They said VB is for databases, well this program weighs in at about half the size of the C version and can capture full-framerate video. Compiled to native code, I see no speed differences between this and the original MS VidCap32 when capturing with my Winnov Videum PCI. VB5 rocks the vidcap world!
