You need to have a window only with legacy Video for Windows API. With DirectShow or Media Foundation, window is not necessary for video capture. In C# you can interface to those APIs using open source DirectShow.NET and Media Foundation.NET libraries.
FYI: DirectShow.NET includes CapWMV sample in C# that captures video into file.
