Network Camera (RTSP Stream)

var inputSource = new StreamInputSource("rtsp://videoserver.example/testvideo.mp4");

var cancellationTokenSource = new CancellationTokenSource();

var client = new VideoStreamClient();
client.NewImageReceived += NewImageReceived;
var task = client.StartFrameReaderAsync(inputSource, OutputImageFormat.Bmp, cancellationTokenSource.Token);

//wait for exit
Console.ReadLine();

client.NewImageReceived -= NewImageReceived;

void NewImageReceived(byte[] imageData)
{
    File.WriteAllBytes($@"{DateTime.Now.Ticks}.bmp", imageData);
}

Webcam

You can find out the name of your webcam in the Windows Device Manager in the section Cameras
Windows Device Manager

var cancellationTokenSource = new CancellationTokenSource();

var client = new VideoStreamClient();
client.NewImageReceived += NewImageReceived;
var task = client.StartFrameReaderAsync(inputSource, OutputImageFormat.Bmp, cancellationTokenSource.Token);

//wait for exit
Console.ReadLine();

client.NewImageReceived -= NewImageReceived;

void NewImageReceived(byte[] imageData)
{
    File.WriteAllBytes($@"{DateTime.Now.Ticks}.bmp", imageData);
}

var inputSource = new CustomInputSource("-rtsp_transport tcp -i rtsp://wowzaec2demo.streamlock.net/vod/mp4:BigBuckBunny_115k.mp4 -vf transpose=dir=1");

var cancellationTokenSource = new CancellationTokenSource();

var client = new VideoStreamClient();
client.NewImageReceived += NewImageReceived;
var task = client.StartFrameReaderAsync(inputSource, OutputImageFormat.Bmp, cancellationTokenSource.Token);

//wait for exit
Console.ReadLine();

client.NewImageReceived -= NewImageReceived;

void NewImageReceived(byte[] imageData)
