This code in Python used to bring up the DirectShow properties dialog for setting the exposure, brightness, etc. for a camera but at some point (not sure how long ago), it must have stopped working as it doesn't work for me anymore, even trying across different computers and different cameras:

cap = cv2.VideoCapture(0)
