I would like to access a camera attached to my system. basically i would like to capture an image using the code retirieve the image. can someone suggest me a good framework. I went through JMF, but it was last updated 7 years ago. FMJ also lacks proper documentation. Is there any framework available which is good and has good userbase?
Xuggler is pretty cool. It has tutorials too.

Since a while, but without success, I'm trying to achieve a cross-platform solution that makes me able to use a custom camera with custom functionalities. However, no one on the internet seems to get it done over each platform (Often, only Android & iOS are implemented, but no UWP) and I still don't understand why...
I've been searching for the past months how to make something, like a service, a dependency service like, from which you can get the stream/frames of the camera. Once you get it, be able to put it into an Xamarin.Forms.Image.
The principle of this conception would allow developers to implement functions, inside of the dependency service, such as taking video or taking pictures from the native stream camera.
You could say "But you can already use NuGet as Xam.Plugin.Media from James Montemagno.". Yes, but with his package, you call the native built-in camera so you can't implement your own design or your own functionalities..
So my question is: "Does someone has any tips or any project that can help to realize this project/idea?". If I can make it work, then I will create a project on my public GitHub, in order to help future people who would like to realize it.
Thank for any help
PS: There is some results about some researches I made: https://forums.xamarin.com/discussion/comment/284359/#Comment_284359
This article looks to be similar to what you are after:
Full Page Camera in Xamarin
It derives a camera page from ContentPage then creates platform specific custom renderers based on PageRenderer.
Bonus - there is source code on GitHub
I want to generate some text from my bb10 app to give audio feedback to the user.
(But the screenreader like in the accessibility feature is not sufficient)
Has anybody already successfully got text-to-speech implemented?
There are countless open source projects that do this on PC platforms. You may have your best luck in fitting them to your needs. – Josh C
Any library you would recommend? It should have C or C++ interface and must work offline (no server based solution) and it should not occupy too much memory. – thowa
I had to check to make sure it was written in C++ which it is. It is called ESpeak. I heard about it nearly 7 years ago when I was looking for a speech synthesizer that was powerful/robust enough to sound like a human. I believe it was ESpeak, and back then it was a complicated task to get it to spew out realistic sounding speech.

This one looks promising as well; however it is written in java.

Im looking to upload xml files to a php server that range from 1mb to 50mb. As far as I can tell ASIHTTP was the code to use back in the day but Im looking for a newer framework to work with.
The ASIHTTP website recommended AFNetworking, but I was wondering if there were any other good ones out there I should look into. Im VERY new to cocoa programming and have started off learning with ARC enable so something compatible with that would be ideal also.

Right now AFNetworking is the best choice. I've used it and it's pretty good. I recommend it!
If you're looking at recommendations that are a few years old suggesting you use a third party library, you might consider taking a second look at what the OS itself provides. NSURLConnection still isn't the best solution for everyone, but it's improved much over the last few iOS & OS X releases.
I'm looking into building a tagging feature in my Mac app. I would like to do something like in the attached image. Is the UI portion offered natively in Cocoa? If so, what is the class name?
You can use NSTokenField to accomplish that. Start by reading Token Field Programming Guide.
I had to do exactly that a couple of weeks ago. I decided to use NSTokenField as well but ran into quite a number of problems. See my endeavours here. Hope you fare better with your implementation as it gave me a couple of really short nights....
I am just a beginner in Titanium and searching for few sample source code to learn from and run. Downloading and working with kitchen sink or with the API is a big pain, to understand as well as to work with.
Although everything is there in both and they have given sample but that seems like not an implementation. I just want to have some source code to learn how, when and where to use the elements? How things work, how are they integrated etc.
Usually at the Q&A section there are samples of code. Just search what you are looking for: http://developer.appcelerator.com/questions/newest
The Wiki provides examples: http://wiki.appcelerator.org/display/guides/Home
Even this website provides code samples, check out the Titanium Tag: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/titanium
And last, but not least, there seem to be more and more code samples in the API Docs: http://developer.appcelerator.com/apidoc/mobile/latest
Good luck!
As an option, you can find good application samples on CodeCanyon. They're not free but you can learn a lot by examining how to start from scratch to build an application like;
Simple Foursquare like apps
Photo gallery apps
TODO apps etc.

I found this Forging Titanium series on Vimeo.com to be one of the best. Just watch out this complete series. Beside providing you with basics and advanced limelight on elements and functionality, also provide link to many github public repository we can follow and get numerous sample codes.
