A couple of old ones
Even if a bear wears socks and shoes he still has bear feet.
A bear walks into a bar and says,
“Give me a whiskey and ................cola.”
“Why the big pause?” asks the bartender. The bear shrugged.
“I’m not sure; I was born with them.”

What do you call a dog with no legs?
It doesn’t matter - it’s not going to come anyways!
If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

I keep finding methods that seem outdated and/or don't have all the functionality I need.
I'm using vb.net in VS 2017. The webcam is a Logitech Brio.
I need the ability to take still photos, and acquire video. In both cases data from another source will be overlaid in the image, as it is recorded.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Links to examples/demos would be great too.
thanks!

Wrong place to ask: see the sentence above that ends in red. Then try here: Ask a Question[^]
But ... tell us what you tried, exactly - and what happened when you did. That way, we don't waste our time or your time giving you "solutions" you have already rejected ...
And see here: Asking questions is a skill[^]

Turn it on.
Face camera.
Was it really that hard?

If you're going to ask a programming question here, you need to use a thinly veiled disguise as something else. Perhaps, asking for opinions first or saying tabs are better than spaces.

Apparently, you can ask programming questions now in the Lounge. No one seems to care anymore, one way or another.

I gave you an up vote just to negate the down vote. Let the chaos ensue... muwahahahahaha.

thumbs down is still +8 rep points. So, I can only win at this rate.

The thing is that a non-programmer sees a problem in the use of some digital stuff.
He isn't programming it, but we programmers see it as something that can be soved through programming.
So we yell at him, even though he is not a programmer at all.
Sometimes, I think 'The Lounge' is a misnomer. The primary purpose and function of the forum is to discuss word puzzles and puns. Anything else is secondary, only marginally accepted.

The occasional haiku is also acceptable.

FreedMalloc reply,
missed an opportunity,
to be eloquent.
Mentioning Haiku,
should require syllables,
correctly counted.

I have to agree. I thought that I should have made the response a Haiku right after I posted it but I couldn't come up with one.
But, I do salute your response to me!
|
|
|
|
|
Agreed. It's a fine balance for sure.

Hint: the photos and videos wind up in a folder.
"Overlaying" is a post production process; even if it's milliseconds; or frame by frame.

Which webcam? I own six that are so old they do not work anymore, unless I install Windows ME.
I am NOT installing Windows ME, let that be clear.
So, that hardware is not an option. Well, not that easy on Linux. My Raspberry isn't accepting all, let alone that Mono talks to it.
I'll update once it works, IF I get it to work. We could definitively use a witch familiar with code to pioneer the subject.

Maybe someone would like to share their experiences or thoughts on this
|

Define "remote meeting".
All meetings are best avoided altogether.
|
|
|
|
|
This.
The vast majority of meetings are for management to justify their existence.
Hire smart, diligent people, and get out of their way.
|
|
|

Don't ask people to share their experiences.

I second that. It turns into Open Mike Night crossed with Therapy Session Sharing.

Maybe define what you mean by 'effectiveness'.

1) Paint blue circles on your eyelids, and try not to snore.
2) Always take the minutes. It's a thankless boring job, but ... it has its compensations*
* The minutes are the official record of the meeting: if it's not in the minutes, it didn't happen. Conversely, if it is in, it did. So if you write the minutes, you control who gets what actionables. Get my drift?
