Audio and Video Development Any method for MF PVP application fail gracefully if video driver is not PVP signed?
I am working on an application that runs protected playback with Media Foundation. I've encountered a problem that with some graphics cards, an error dialog box pops up from another process saying " Bad Image: X is either not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error". After repeatedly pressing OK for the same dialog poping up many times, I can see the application hits a debug assertion saying that ESP is not properly restored. I've read about the following previous thread in this forum and know that this symptom happens because video driver is unsigned and mfpmp.exe failed.

SQL Server Dynamic XSD Schema Location For XML Source
I want to be able to programmatically set the schema location for an XML source. I first thought it would be a simple task using expressions and variables but it doesn't appear to allow anything in the way of setting it at runtime. Is this possible Thanks Jamie... just wanted to chime in and say this was really helpful - I would have never thought of looking on the properties of the data flow. ...Show All
Visual C++ Writing MMC Snapin in Visual C++ 2005
Hello, I'm trying to write a MMC Snap-in extension using Visual C++ 2005 Beta 1. But different from Visual C++ 6.0, I couldn't find ATL object of MMC Snapin. It's not supported any more Where is the MMC Snap-in wizard then Any suggestions how shall I do that Thanks! Thanks for your reply Brandon. Do you know what microsoft plans for MMC's and the .NET framework For example will there be a .NET assembly (at some point) to allow us to create MMC snapins using .NET be it c#, c++ or VB As it feels like you guys are not endorsing the use of MMC snapins as you have made everything else a lot easier to code like DCOM but creating MMC's are still very "old school".

Visual C++ C++ Win32 API - Simple Label Creation
Hi, i am new here, and i am trying to learn to program in the win32 api in c++. I have built a basic program, but was trying to familiarise myself with some common aspects. I was hoping someone could show me the code to create a basic label (static control). I hope this makes sense to you. I don't want it to do anything, this is a bit that i have already: //input box create hEdit = CreateWindowEx(WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE, "EDIT", "", WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | ES_MULTILINE | ES_AUTOVSCROLL | ES_AUTOHSCROLL, 20, 50, 200, 30, hwnd, (HMENU)IDC_MAIN_INPU, GetModuleHandle(NULL), NULL); //--- So i basically want something like that, but just a label with a transparent background.

Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Any way to disable optimistic concurrency in LINQ to SQL?
Is it possible to disable optimistic concurrency checking completely, at a *table* level It appears that the May build only allows for setting this on the column level with the UpdateMode attribute on the columns and not table wide. I don't see anything on a table basis that would do this at this point. Perhaps it could be a change request for a future release.

Visual Basic user defined equations at runtime?
I am trying to figure out if it is possible for to accept a user defined equation as a variable at runtime and evaluate it given the variables in the equation. The simple setup would br to have one text box in which a user could type something like the following: a + b Two other text boxes labeled a and b would accept values for a and b from the user. Those values would be set to numeric variables (integer, single, double,.. whatever) named a and b. One last text box would desplay the answer when a button is pressed. If I define an equation at design time as: equ = a + b, visual basic will solve for equ given a and b. But if I set equ = textbox.txt (which is a + b) visual basic will not resolve the equation. Is t ...Show All

Visual Studio Team System Data Dude on Windows Vista Broken
I'm trying out Visual Studio 2005 on Windows Vista. I've installed Visual Studio Team Suite including Team Explorer and Team Edition for Database Professionals. I then installed VS 2005 SP1 and the VS 2005 SP1 Update for Vista Beta. I then created a new SQL 2005 Database project and attempted to build it and Visual Studio just crashes.

Visual C# Layered transparency
Hi, Are there any way to do the following: I have a form with two PictureBox components. Both pictureboxes have a semitransparent png image as their image property so that you can see the form background through each of the pictureboxes. My problem is when the PictureBoxes overlap. Beneath the topmost PictureBox I can only see the background of the form, the overlapped part of the other PictureBox is not visible (It's not that easy to explain, but I can provide a image if my explanation is not clear). I need this to work with other components that PictureBoxes also, but this makes for an easier explanation of this problem. Thanks in advance.
