AForge.net / DirectShow webcam recording/previewing

I have code in VB.net that displays a streaming webcam feed. It also records the stream via AVI or MPEG. However, i can not seem to get the recording to work well. Therefore, i am looking for a expert in [login to view URL] code and/or DirectShow code. This should be a simple fix for anyone who is since most of the code is already done for you. This is a combination of using [login to view URL] ([login to view URL]) code example and also using the Deveck dotNetWebcamLibrary ([login to view URL]). Attached is my code that i am trying to get working. I get the error: "Failed creating compressed stream." when choosing the AVI recording. I would like to have different codecs to choose from to have good quality videos but that don't take up a lot of drive space. The MPEG recorder seems to work but has TERRIBLE quality when viewing the recorded video. You will need a webcam in order to test my app out and see whats wrong/missing from it. I just need good quality videos without taking up a lot of disk space. All code will become the property of me. 1) I require complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done (so that I may modify it in the future). 2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables): 2b) Any website server-side deliverables must be installed by the worker in ready-to-run condition in the employer's environment. 2c) Any website server-side deliverables must be provided with complete instructions and assistance so that the employer may install them in ready-to-run condition in the employer's environment. 2d) Any website server-side deliverables must be installed as described elsewhere by the employer. 2e) If there are any server-side deliverables (intended to only exist in one place in the employer's environment) then they must be installed by the worker in ready-to-run condition (unless specified elsewhere by the employer). 2f) All other software (including but not limited to any desktop software or software the employer intends to distribute) must include a software installation package that will install the software in ready-to-run condition on the platform(s) specified in this project (unless specified elsewhere by the employer). 3) All deliverables will be considered 'work made for hire' under U.S. Copyright law.
