   Playing MPEG-Streams without DirectShow
  Hi, I''m currently working on a DirectX3 game(DX3 because the game must run on WinNT) and now have to implement a MPEG-Player which plays MPEG-Streams in Fullscreen Mode. Of course i can''t use DirectShow for that, because DShow is not available in DirectX3. Anybody have an idea how to realize that? Thanks in advance! Maik 
  Look into Video For Windows (VFW), that's what DirectShow used to be called.   [edited by - Magmai Kai Holmlor on February 17, 2004 9:28:28 PM];  Thanks for the fast answer!I think VFW is not that what I''m looking for, it''s an too "Low-Level" interface(I''ll have to worry about skipped frames, sound-syncing and much more on my own).I try now this: I convert my MPG File to a AVI and use the AVI playback routines in Win32. That should be the fastest way to implement Videostreams in my DX3 Game.Anyway, if somebody knows a good (and free) Movie-Player that runs without DShow, please let me know.LGMaik
