Let’s start Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0. Create a new empty project, of the “Standard EXE” variety:

This should produce a new empty project, with a single form (empty as well). Now, right-click on the Components bar and select “Components…”:

This will bring up the components selection dialog of VB. In the “Controls” tab, select the “FireiX 1.0 Type Library” and click on OK:

This will add the Fire-iX FireiPreviewCtrl object selector, which can be used for video display:

Click on the “ub” tool, and create a window for video display on the empty form:

Now it's time to edit the form code. First, we need two global variables, so we add them at the very top:

Dim Manager As FireiManager
Dim Camera As FireiCamera

Then, we create the Manager object, and use it to create the Camera object (in Form_Load):

Set Manager = new FireiManager
Set Camera = Manager.GetCameraFromIndex(0)

Lastly, we attach the Camera object to our control, and start it:

FireiPreviewCtrl1.AttachCamera Camera
Camera.Run

That's all, video preview made-easy!
