You could try using grabber.Current to get the frames, set your 
DirectShowCanvas off-screen.

Use a timer to fire every 30 or so ms, draw the image to the canvas of your 
choice. I've had no problem with basic manipulation/frame rate yet, but am 
careful on what I do as not to drop a fistful of frames.
