• Software Development for Windows Vista Displaying Media from an IStream - is Directshow what I should use

  Warning - I'm a complete beginner at DirectShow. I need to come up with a solution to play audio and video in our application. However there are several gotchas in the requirements, that are making it difficult for me to know where to begin - I think Direct~Show is the answer, but am not sure how to proceed. The first gotcha is that the media does not exist as files on the users machine - they are downloaded from remote machines and need to be played as they are downloaded. I can provide an IStream interface to the data. The second gotcha is that I do not know what format the data is in ahead of time. I do receive the filename of the data on the remote machine and I can seek to any position in the file and read a block of data. ...Show All

• Windows Search Technologies Performance problem

  After trying WDS 2.6.5 during some days, I have a doubt concerning indexation perfomance. In the beginning, the indexation was very fast. But now I don't see any significant evolution. At this time, 17046 documents are indexed and 23627 are waiting. During the last days, I put the computer working only in the indexation during 1 or 2 hours in a day, but I don't see any significant variation of these numbers. However I see that WDS is scanning files (at least it shows their names in the indexing status window). Can anybody explain to me the one what happens Thanks. Today, very quickly, the number of indexed files changed from 17000 for about 35000. However, in the last days, as I already explaine ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Why Avi play failed when i change the parent of MediaElement

  Hi all i want to change the size of my video, so i have two Viewbox,viewboxA is 400x400 and viewboxB is full screen. i put my mediaelement in a grid(g) and put g in viewboxA,when i double click on g, i remove it from viewboxA and put it into viewboxB, and double click again, i move it back to viewboxA.

• Visual C# Pointer

  as far as me know, this statement MyClass o = new MyClass(); are actually create instance of [MyClass] in memory and [ o ] are not the instance but the pointer which point to memory. am me right My problem is : Dictionary<string,MyClass> myCollection = new Dictionary<string,MyClass>(); myCollection.Add("Object01",new MyClass()); // and somewhere else MyClass obj = myCollection["Object01"]; ok, here the problem, according to theory above, [ obj ] are also the pointer which point to the momery, when me :- myCollection.Remove("Object01"); the instance are still exist, because what me have remove/kill are only the pointer which point to the "real" instance, so the [obj] are still able t ...Show All

• SQL Server Metadata Model in SSIS 2005

  Hi *, Can anyone tell me what Metadata Model Microsoft supports with SSIS 2005 DTS in 2000 was supporting OIM but I was not able to get some information about this topic on SSIS 2005.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. How to draw an arbitrary segment of triangles from a VertexBuffer?

  Good Evening- I basically have a VertexBuffer containing 20 triangles, but I want to be able to just draw 2 of them at a time and then change settings (for example the World matrix). I don't see how this is possible in Managed DirectX... for example if I use DrawPrimitives(), you can specify an offset to start rendering but it will continue rendering until the end of the buffer is reached. I want to specify an offset and a length... Could someone please show me how or point me in the direction of a different method of storing/drawing triangles that would Thanks, Philski yeah... that's what I get for coding late at night. I was putting in the vertexes per triangle as the third option... (napolean dynamite) ...Show All
