public: 
property VideoProcessors^ PreviewVideoProcessors { 
   VideoProcessors^ get(); 
}

Property Value

A VideoProcessors collection object representing the available preview video processors.

Remarks

This VideoProcessors collection is used for preview video playback. Use of processors as preview processors will not affect the final captured video output. The VideoProcessors object is used to enumerate all available video processing filters. .
