If you follow the 'traditional' solution, plugging the camera in the cRIO, and doing the vision.AxisCamera.GetInstance() to start the video feed to the Dashboard, I will tell you that we had problems doing even that much with the M1011 in either C++ or any version of RobotPy. Quite a few times the feed would work, many times it would not, and we could never change the camera parameters through the software. But the patch fixed all that.
You can apply the proposed patch mentioned in this thread to either RobotPy 2011.2 or the latest RobotPy from the git repository, and though you will have to 'build it yourself', I believe the result will be a more reliable and configurable video feed.

Hmmm I read the whole thread and tried a bit with our robot but I can't get it done. I did exactly what you are saying up here.
Can maybe anybody briefly explain the steps that we have to do to get our camera running? Its an Axis 206 camera.
