Audio and Video Development Scaling with DXVA2.0
Hi, I’m currently studying the DXVA2.0 device management and video processing and I wonder if you could help me with the following trouble: I’m want to build a MFT who doe’s video processing on video source, one of the features I want to offer is the ability to use the hardware scaling capabilities instead of my software algorithms. Therefore, I came up with some basic questions: 1. When setting the video position by the IMFVideoDisplayControl interface to a larger destination rectangle then the source rectangle – how can I ensure that the resizing is done by the hardware and not software 2. Is there a way to implement scaling using the IDirectXVideoProcessor::Video ProcessBlt in my MFT so I could actually ...Show All

I've submitted a SOAP request that worked last week, but when I run it today (and yesterday), I get error code -400063, The report data for the requested date range is not yet available.

Gadgets addImageObject rotation causes corruption if Margin isn't 0
In the following example, the aliased surround around the image is not placed correctly. Sidebar doesn't take account of the body Margin's. blank.png is a 100% transparent image test.png is a solid white image 300x400 <BODY style="position:absolute; width:500px; height:500px;" > <g:background id="bodyBackground" src="blank.png" style="width:100%; height:100%" /> </BODY> Then add an image to it in code and rotate it: bodyImageSurround = bodyBackground.addImageObject("test.png", 50, 50); bodyImageSurround.rotation = 30; You now have a rotated image, with the aliased surround in completely the wrong place!

Windows Forms Windows Media Center
I have just bought a new laptop (Dell E5105) from QVC and it comes with the Windows Media Center OS. Am I going to have to replace the OS with XP Professional I am a web designer and VB Programmer and I need to have IIS and want NTFS. Does the Media Center OS support these two items Thanks, The base platform for Windows Media Center is, surprisingly enough, XP Pro not XP Home like you would think. It is a superset of XP Professional so you shouldn't experience any problems with installing either IIS or setting the file system to NTFS. ...Show All
Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. createenumobject fails
Whenever I call CreateEnumObject, it fails. I believe my problem extends further than this, however. I found out that IDirectXFile interfaces had been delcared deprecated, so I attempeted to use newer functions, and I must have messed up with a casting, or be using the wrong interface or something like that. Here is all the code in my app that applies to it: typedef struct meshstruct { char *name; ID3DXMesh *meshobj; ID3DXMesh *skinmesh; ID3DXSkinInfo *skininfo; DWORD numofmaterials; D3DMATERIAL9 *materials; LPDIRECT3DTEXTURE9 *textures; meshstruct *next; meshstruct() { name = NULL; meshobj = NULL; skinmesh = NULL; skininfo = NULL; numofmaterials = 0; materials = NULL; textures = ...Show All

Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) MediaElement in a FlowDocument
Hello Everyone! I am trying to add a MediaElement (video file) inside a BlockUIElement to a Figure, then add the Figure to a Paragraph and finally stick the Paragraph into a FlowDocument. I have set the MediaElement.LoadedBehaviour to Play, and as soon as it gets added to the figure it starts to run, the only problem is that the video doesnt update, meaning that the only thing that "moves" is the sound. Basically the Video freezes on frame 0 but the audio plays fine. Now the interesting thing is that if I resize the FlowDocument or hover the mouse over a button inside the Grid where the FlowDocument lives, the video also updates fine. In the case of the button, at least for the duration of the little OnMouseOver animation attach ...Show All
