Wpf and C # capture webcam and network cameras

I am looking for a solution for capturing webcam and network cameras. I've done some research on the internet but so far I haven't been able to find a solution that was viable for my problem. I need my application to list all available cameras and give me the option to select one to display. I also need an option that allows me to take a print of the camera and save it in a folder. My research took me to some proprietary solutions and to some tutorials that didn't solve my problem, like these.

Wpf-MediaKit: https://github.com/Sascha-L/WPF-MediaKit

Media Capture: https://learn.microsoft.com/pt-br/windows/uwp/audio-video-camera/basic-photo-video-and-audio-capture-with-mediacapture

LeadTools: https://www.leadtools.com/sdk/multimedia/capture?

Does anyone know any OpenSource library that solves my problem?

To detect camera devices on your system, use ManagementObjectSearcher and figure out the string query to use for the camera(s) you want to find. Google "ManagementObjectSearcher camera devices" on how to do it, I don't have a direct solution.

To read the camera stream in C# (so that you can capture a frame), look into OpenCVSharp and the online samples it provides in github.

Good luck!
