• Smart Device Development Unable to play WMV on WMP10 on PocketPC

  I'm not sure if this is right place to ask this question, apologies if I'm out of line. I'm trying to play a video file (encoded as Windows Media Player 9 Screen) on a Pocket PC running Windows Media Player 10 Mobile on Windows Mobile 2003 SE (it's a Dell Axim X50v). I get the sound but no picture, so I'm guessing I'm missing the WMP9 Screen codec. Does anyone know how I can fix this Thanks in advance. that definitely would be caused by a situation in which you do not have the proper codec available. Question though: (1) are you certain what codec the video was encoded with, and (2) are you certain of the version of WMP on your device WMP10 does play media encoded with WMP9. Also: can you play the file o ...Show All

• Visual C# compile in 1.1 framework

  I'm currently using VC# 2005 Express Edition. Is there a way to change the compile framework to 1.1 or is there a way to make 2.0 work when only 1.1 is installed There was a way to change the framework in the previous VC#, but it's not there in the new verions. Thanks in advance. That seems like it was a really dumb idea on Microsoft's part. People using Windows XP doen't always have .NET 2.0 installed, so without installing 2.0 for them how do you get a 2.0 program to run in 1.1 ...Show All

• Internet Explorer Development IE7's Shrink-to-fit is one size fits all?

  Printing in a web app isn't easy. I have an application that loads a page into an Iframe, and a button outside of the iframe that does the iframe.focus();iframe.print() ; thing to print out the contents of the iframe. Whats inside of the iframe is meant to be print out on legal sized paper (8.5"x14"), which isn't the same as normal letter paper (8.5"x11"). In previous IE versions this worked like a charm. IE7, however, decides that legel size is not appropriate and applies the shrink-to-fit to shrink my beautiful legal sized document into a letter sized box. When printing, the printer expects a legal sized document since that's whats defined in the printer settings, but only prints a letter-sized box of content si ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions Calling Win32 API from Assembly Code

  Hi How do I call a Win32 API from assembly code Basically I have to call kernel32.dll function from my assembly code. If you try to call GetLocaleInfo from C with these parameters you will get the same error. I tried changing the first parameter from 100h to 7fh (LOCALE_INVARIANT) and the assembly code works. You can also simplify the assembly code like this: _asm { push 100 /// 4 Parameter push [strPtr] /// 3 Parameter push 6 /// 2 parameter push 7fh /// 1 Parameter call dword ptr [FunPtr] /// Function Call mov usRtn, ax } May I ask why you need to get through all this trouble to call GetLocaleInfo or this is just an example ...Show All

  hi all i was playing around making a small image viewer app type thing (first foray into windows apps) and have run into a problem geting the child forms (or any off them for that matter) to communicate in a way I want, I'm not sure if its even possible, it should be as it seems to me to be a relatively fundamental use of them. basically I was trying to get the mouse coordinates to update another child form that iwas going to use as a control, so ...the parent form opens the two child forms, one contains a picture anmd the other is just for info (the coords), I can pass the info over if I do a MessageBox.Show("e.X.ToString()); however when I try to update, say a label it doesnt do anything.
