# SimpleMediaSource sample
This sample demonstrates how to create a custom media source and driver package that can be installed as a camera and produce frames.
For more information, see the accompanying documentation at [Frame Server Custom Media Source](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows-hardware/drivers/stream/frame-server-custom-media-source).
## Contents
- MediaSource - COM DLL project for the custom media source
- SimpleMediaSourceDriver - UMDF driver install package
## Installation
1. Build the solution.
1. Navigate to the output folder, e.g. Windows-driver-samples\general\SimpleMediaSource\x64\Release, and the driver package will be in a directory also called SimpleMediaSourceDriver. Check that the folder has `SimpleMediaSource.dll`, `simplemediasourcedriver.cat`, `SimpleMediaSourceDriver.dll`, and `SimpleMediaSourceDriver.inf`.
1. Deploy the driver package with the following command:
`devcon dp_add SimpleMediaSourceDriver.inf`
1. In Device Manager, locate **SimpleMediaSource Capture Source**, under the Camera category. Open the Microsoft Camera App, switch cameras if necessary until the camera is streaming from the SimpleMediaSource. You should see a scrolling black and white gradient.
