Well I am on a journey to create one of my first files and this thing is driving me absolutely crazy!!!! Well after hours of research just on the program alone, I have came to one of those points where your now at the point that your pulling out each hair from your head one - by - one!!! Anyway I will try to start off with a brief description of the program I am trying to make and the problem I am encountering at the end.

Anyway I was hoping to create a program similiar to Gspot, which can be loctaed here : http://www.headbands.com/gspot/. The program detects the codec you need for the movie, tells you if you have the right codecs, and other information about your *.avi video file. Except I was hoping to take a way a few features and add some. The features I was hoping to add is the ability to also search for *.avi files throughout your computer instead of clicking on each one maually and of course still have the manual one though where you can manaually check a seperate video. One other thing that I was hoping to also add was the ability to then read the information like the video title of the video and send that then over to a database or similiar to what the batch command : dir *.avi /s /b > myMovies.txt that would do. One other rather complex function I was looking at is adding the wininet functions to my program where it will then go to the imdb.com database and search for that movie to find the rating and genre of the video.

Well my question is what library do I need to include for my *.avi files? I have read information over DirectShow and AVIfile. Whenever I try to do a sample program though in my compiler it doesn't like it. Now after about 20-30 minutes looking stuff up on AVIfile I figure out it is a C# class and has nothing to do with VC++(please correct me if Im wrong).I will include some links down at the bottom of additional links to the APIfile use in Microsofts SDK and others I have found. I have also figured out in my long journey that *.avi is a RIFF file format or Resource Interchange File Format. How do I open a dang *.avi file in the program Im trying to make? This is so irritating! I am doing this all in C++(well at least trying). Anyway here are aare a few links about *.avi, APIfile functions, and etc...

AVIfile - http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/multimed/htm/_win32_opening_an_avi_file.asp
AVI OVERVIEW - http://camars.kaist.ac.kr/~jaewon/special/avi/avi.html
AVI RIFF FORM - http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/wcedshow/html/_dxce_dshow_avi_riff_form.asp

Anyway, I hope someone knows, because this irritating the crap out of me. Thanks a lot for any help and let me tell you there is a lot more information than that if you want it, but those were some of the more helpful links.
