Default How to interface VO with Windows Media Format 9.5 SDK



Hello Group,

I would like to make a gui version of the metadataedit.exe sample from the
Windows Media Format 9.5 SDK.
SDK can be downloaded here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...t/winmedia.asp

The problem I'm having is how to create the automation class or _DLL
declarations for wmvcore.dll and wmasf.dll.
There are only .h and .idl files provided in the include folder of the SDK.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
It seems the com objects (if that's what they are) inherit from IUknown so I
can't generate any interface code for it. Is there any utils to generate VO
interface code from an idl file? Can someone shed some light on how I can
access this SDK from VO?

TIA

Alex,

This does not address your question directly, but may be helpful.

I began down a similar path tryiing to incorporate Net Meeting with VO.
Rather than go the SDK route, it was much simpler to use the 'scripting'
method. I actually create a file locally that I pass to the browser (called
from within VO). The file sets up netmeeting, and whatever parameters it
needs ( ip address to call ).

The end result is alot of functionality, without getting into alot of
difficult coding. Perhaps there is a scripting capability that will allow
you access to the features of Windows Media Format 9.5, without all the
coding.

Sorry this isn't a better answer, but perhaps thinking about it differently
will help.

Marshall
