Hi,

I'm new to this world of multimedia APIs so I need some hints to start. I
need to capture video from an external device and store it on hard disk.
Then I need to play it back to analog output. Is it any Microsoft SDK for
doing that?

Thanks in advance

This should get you started:

http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=directshow

See microsoft.public.win32.programmer.directx.video for DirectShow support
(follow up set there).

Microsoft also added microsoft.public.win32.programmer.directx.managed for
DirectX/DirectShow .NET and managed code questions when DirectX 9 was
released.

- the main DirectX site is http://www.microsoft.com/directx

- the main MSDN Library site for DirectShow is

ttp://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/directx9_c/directx/htm/directshow.asp

- often the fastest way to find an answer to your question is to search on
Google Groups which keeps a complete archive of most newsgroups
(http://groups.google.com)

- the most relevant Google Groups archive for DirectX Video programming is
http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=...crosoft.public.win32.programmer.directx.video

- a good introductory book for DirectShow is
