What's the best way to access live camera/data streams from a standalone C# app?

I want to be able to easily connect to milestone cameras by ID and get a stream of image data, preferably in C#. The docs recommend the Media Tookit: https://doc.developer.milestonesys.com/html/index.html?base=samples/configapiclient.html&tree=tree_2.html, but I can’t find any c# docs, and the link to the c++ docs at the bottom of that page is broken.

I think the Media Live Viewer sample might fit what you need.

https://doc.developer.milestonesys.com/html/index.html?base=samples/medialiveviewer.html&tree=tree_2.html

The sample uses a JpegLiveSource, what you want might be RawLiveSource, if it is raw data you want please also see the “The GenericByteData format” -
