Can I use libVLC to play video from capture devices, e.g. from a HDMI to USB capture device?

Hi,

I'm using Delphi to embed video into my own program, using the comprehensive libVLC via the excellent (but no longer supported) PasLibVlc code.

Can I use libVLC to play video from capture devices, e.g. from a HDMI to USB capture device?

That is, can I make a call to libVLC that will return the same functionality as VLC's own "open media -> capture device -> video device name -> USB video -> Play"?

...bumping on the off-chance that someone might know the answer to this one.
