Errata
------

When using the VideoPreview control, some webcam drivers have a bug that will cause the ExecuteCommand call in the sample below to hang while the VideoPreview is paused.

    Dim Itm 'As Item
    
    VideoPreview1.Pause = True
    Set Itm = VideoPreview1.Device.ExecuteCommand(wiaCommandTakePicture)
	

The Windows Image Acquisition Library v2.0 is only designed to support the PNG, BMP, JPG, GIF and TIFF image formats.  It should not be relied upon to support other formats, though they may appear to be supported depending on system configuration.
