/*******************************************************************************
* A simple application to allow users to capture audio or video through devices
* connected to the PC. Via command-line arguments the user specifies whether
* audio (-a) or video (-v) capture, the duration of the capture (-d) in
* seconds, and the file to write the media to (-f).
*
* The application would be far more useful and versatile if it provided control
* over the formats of the audio and video captured as well as the content type
* of the output.
*
* The class searches for capture devices that support the particular default
* track formats: linear for audio and Cinepak for video. As a fall-back two
* device names are hard-coded into the application as an example of how to
* obtain DeviceInfo when a device's name is known. The user may force the
* application to use these names by using the -k (known devices) flag.
*
* The class is static but employs the earlier Location2Location example to
* perform all the Processor and DataSink related work. Thus the application
* chiefly involves CaptureDevice related operations.
