Not really a C++ question, but I'm sure guys have answers anyway. I'm trying to render a video stream in WPF. By video, I don't mean a video file that WPF can just play, I'm talking about a stream of bytes and frames decoded and ready to blit to screen. Does anyone know what the technology of choice for doing the rendering is in the new world of WinFX? I want my video stream to happily coexist with all the WPF stuff in a single window - so I can transparently overlay buttons etc. on top. It seems that using DirectX rendering currently causes the Vista Window Mnager to deactivate all special effects, such as glass. What should I be doing? Is this likely to be a problem that will go away in future builds?

Does anyone know how to get a full path to a program registered under windows for a certain file extension?
For example: if a given file extension is .xls how is it possible to find Microsoft Excel executable file path to run the xls file ?
Any other ways except scanning registry? Any windows API's?

Just run Exel (through ShellExecute() for example). It is registered, so the system s knows already where it is

You can use AssocQueryString() or FindExecutable() .

Hi,
I have two applications. One application will push all its COM objects to the ROT.
And tried to get the Objects in the second application.
I got the Object pointer by calling GetActiveObject().
But I am not able to use the pointer properly.
I am getting the "Acccess Violation" error while trying to call QueryInterface.
Is it possible for the two process to communicate like this.
If yes will anybody help me to resolve this problem.
If not which is the best way for the two process to communicate. Communicate in the sence the second app should be able to invoke some functionality in the first process.
Thanks in advance

Hi fellows
I've readed in MSDN something like this:
Link Collections are nested subcollections in a Top-Level collection.
LinkCollection arrays: describes all the LinkCollections in the Top-Level Collection. They are organized in a hierarquical order. The first node of LinkCollection array is the Top-Level Collection and the remaining are the remaining Top-Level Collection's LinkCollections.
Finally my question:
What are a LinkCollection? On the MSDN there aren't a explanation.
Can you help me guys?

How can we format a removalble drive, in particular an ATA flash card, in Visual C++ silently without the user intervention? I tried the SHFormatDrive but this API just starts the Windows format command.
Also, how can we distinguish different type of removable drive? I used the SDK function GetDriveType(), and a hard disk or any flash device connected to the USB port would return the type DISK_REMOVABLE
Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Tien

I have a c++ application that i am attempting to launch a video clip that is located on a web server over a web browser. Can i use the shell execute function for that?
Also, is there such a thing as an html window that i can use to launch the video in.
If none of the above, i am open to other ideas...
Thanks,

Can you use CHtmlView ?

Never used CHtmlView before.
Any thoughts on how to use?
I will do a search on help.

I simply just want to use it to launch a video clip located on a web server. I figured that using this will have a cleaner windows look than using shellexecute to launch an IE browser.
Can you resend the link that you were recommended? Does not look like it came through...
Thanks,

But if the video clip is associated with a browser, that's exactly what ShellExecute() will use.

Try again.

Hmmm, maybe i was wrong in the way i am thinking about this.
I though that with Shell execute, i will launch a .avi and it will play it through whatever player is on the system. Like Media player etc.
However, i thought with the ChtmlView, it will be played in a windows window view and look like part of your application rather than say a media player.
Am i way off?

The design is such that this clip will just sit on a web server.
The application should be able to hit that web server and play the clip in question.
I was going to use ShellExecute but figured that CHtmlView may have a cleaner look.
