I’m revisiting some of my old work and came to realize there were some changes to the new Capture library that left out some of the old features.  
In the past I was able to start a capture and save the image to a file without having to display the image on the canvas. This allowed me to do some processing on the image and then display the processed results. Now I’m having a bit of difficulty saving the image to file without displaying it in the canvas. If there are any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it…

Also, in the past I was able to print out a list of the camera configurations (name, fps, display ratio). Now when I print the capture list I only get the camera name. Getting the camera configurations was extremely helpful for ironing out any settings, trouble shooting any display issues and debugging.
