How fetch image frame and audio from media file?

With extreme difficulty.

Rarely do you find a video with a stream of full frames that you can just pick out and show in a picturebox. FAR more commonly the video and audio are compressed into various formats and same rates which must be decoded using drivers called "codecs".

The user32 library isn't going to help you with decoding this stuff. It's for the creation and management of windows you see on screen, window message handling, data exchange and various other user interface bits, but NOTHING for decoding video and audio and rendering it.

BTW, forget using a picturebox. You don't need it at all.

Perhaps you should be looking into DirectShow instead?
