Dashboard Camera Image and Data

[buildmaster5000]

This seems to be a common theme so I am going to be utterly blunt and pointed with a few questions to those who have been able to solve these problems that many teams are encountering:
1. With the default dashboard, how would one go about getting a camera image into the appropriate window? Ideally we could get two solution: one for running the camera through the cRIO and another solution for running the camera through the switch.

2. As discussed here and here, the example for displaying various PWM outputs, solinoid outputs (it doesn't work for me with 02011.4 installed), analog outputs, etc. is terribly commented and nearly impossible to figure out. Does anyone have a class or method that would be easy to understand and easy to incorporate into our programs?

Hopefully we can solve the problems and frustrations of many in one afternoon.
