Ok, So I was planning on getting the ACer W3 Tablet. Found an inexpensive one on Ebay. Id like to use that for Cy's Head instead of the Larger Dell Laptop Im using. On other post, Ive read that the ACer W3 was a good choice to EZb. Is this still true? Are there other Tablets that also work great with EZB both in terms of the WIfi and cameras? and still comes with WIndos8. Id like to get a new tablet ,I have the Dell Vue8 tablet, and that does not wirk with EZB (wifi will not sync to the V4 at all).

@RoboHappy Sync wouldn't be the right term... However, have you tried putting your ezb in client mode and then tried connecting to your Dell Vue8 through the router?

DJ can you specify a model or brand of 8 inch tablet with Windows that has front and back cameras that work withARC?

Dj I am out today, but will download from that sdk and test. The amcap I am using is from AN sdk, but it is a very old copy. I am wondering if it the protocol that predates directshow (I forget what it was called other than it was a 3 letter acronym).

I have a tablet with the same camera. I am loading the sdk and samples now. I will post the results.

I downloaded the sdk and an app called AMCap v 9.22 build 260. AMCap advertises itself as an application for DirectShow-Compatible Devices. Both the front and rear cameras work on this tablet through this version of AMCap.

I don't have visual studio installed on this device to compile the samples from the SDK to see if they work or not. I may get to trying this out next week, but right now, I don't know.

The cameras in this tablet are OV2722 cameras.

Is there a particular DLL that I can look for to tell you a version number possibly that the AMCap app would be using? Most of the files have a date modified of 4/19/2010 in the sdk where the AMCap DLL's (things beginning with MS) have dates in 2014.

If I get around to it tomorrow, I will try to install visual studio and compile some of the example projects from the SDK to see if they work or not.

I went ahead and started a download of vs 2015 community. DJ, if there is a specific sample in the MS SDK that you would like me to try, I would be happy to compile it and try it out. It would probably take a while to compile on this computer, but I really am trying to keep my dev box as clean as possible. The wife has taken over my laptop.

DJ, just a heads up... the PlayCap sample from the SDK works without any issue on the OV2722 camera.

It is in the ...\samples\multimedia\directshow\capture\playcap folder.

The amcap sample wont compile. It seems to be missing a stream file or folder or something.

Let me know if you would like for me to test anything else.
