• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Playing WMV files using DirectX or Windows Media ActiveX in VB

  I am trying to make a video player in VB. Originally I was using Windows Media ActiveX to play the videos. When the videos would play the sound would play but there would be no video. I decided to use DirectX to play the videos in hope I would not have this problem. I found a artical online that explaned how to use DirectX to play AVI files. the artical is at: http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/UploadFile/mgold/PlayingVideo11242005002218AM/PlayingVideo.aspx . A thou the code is in C# i was able to adapt it to my needs. i made the conversion to DirectX, ran the program and i got the sae problem.

• Visual Studio DSL Element (concept) - Propriety Validation

  Hi, I wanna put a restriction on some propertys of my DSL Elements, i.e: string field with 3 chars; string field limited to 50 chars, ... How can I make this validation I really appreciate your help D Hi, W.Jansoone is right, there are a few ways to implement this kind of behaviour. One of the things that might influence your decisions for choosing one of the options is the user experience you want to expose in your DSL. For example, when you implement your validation in an "validation method" the validation is not evaluated untill the user hits the "validate" command on the diagram. So, the user can finish his model, validate it and correct any errors that might be in i ...Show All

• Visual C++ BUG: Potential Memory Leak generated by STL deque

  BUG: Potential Memory Leak generated by STL deque. FIX: Add a little code and it will work pretty well. I submitted the problem about 4 years ago, but VC++ SP5 still has the bug. ISSUE: STL map and STL set are not ready to be exported from DLL. FIX: Modification must be made. Yes, I would like to know as well. Where can I find information about the STL implemention in Visual Studio I am also finding Rational Purify is reporting memory leaks in vectors and maps. Am I using it wrong and there is a way to get rid of the leak Or I have to wait until Microsoft issues updates for the problems Jonathan Scott ...Show All

  When booting up, during the log on screen, I get the following error message; svchost.exe- Application Error X- The instruction at"0x7c918fea" refferenced memory at "0x00000010".

• Visual C# Changing EMail Headers

  Hi, This may sound strange but bare with me! I won't go into too many details but I'm sending emails to a particular system (using MailMessage and SmtpClient objects) that requires the subject header of the email to begin with a capital 'S'. So, for example, in the email header I want: Subject: This is a test body: blah blah ..... Instead of : subject: This is a test body: This is a test ..... When I add a header to the message myself (Message.Headers.Add("Subject")) it automatically converts the header name to lower case. Is there any way to keep the header case sensitive Thanks Hi, Thanks for the response. It looks like I will have to go ahead and use a different implementation to send the emails. Just wondering if anyo ...Show All

• Community Chat Zune and the iPod

  I've been following the Zune announcements fairly closely here at work. If you follow my blog, you'll see that I'm pretty passionate about media technologies, and recently went through the pain of migrating away from iPod/iTunes and onto Yahoo Music/Gigabeat S (Portable Media Center). Here the blog category where I talk about it: http://blogs.msdn.com/joemorel/archive/category/13772.aspx Now Zune is in the mix. It looks pretty neat, but I'm not sure if people are really going to go for the whole WiFi thing. I'm just not sure that I want to listen to the same music as the person sitting next to me on the bus. What do you think Not that it answers the question of availability, but there are EB Games and Gamestops in the US.&n ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Best coding practises with ContentManager and GraphicsDeviceManager ?

  I hope someone can give me a decent explanation of this as it's something which I would of thought is pretty essential to writing anything in GSE but makes no mention of it in the documentation. I'm trying to understand the best way for any game elements to access the main games graphics and device, these need to be written in a way that I can give this routine to someone else and they work without the other person having to hard code aynthing in the code I give them. I believe there may of been a more obvious way to do this in beta 1 but I picked things up from beta 2 so some of the examples and documentation is referencing things which have since been taking out. My main confusion comes from the differences in the Windows Game and Spacew ...Show All
