MediaLooks Multimedia Component Framework
This page is a copy of the original page on the MediaLooks' web site and can also be viewed here.
An overview of the MediaLooks Multimedia Component Architecture.
Overview
Basically, MediaLooks Multimedia Components are a way of bridging the gap between DirectShow and a number of development environments, such as .NET, Visual Basic 6, Delphi and C++Builder.
Every component is in fact a wrapper over a DirectShow filter graph and is equipped with a number of interfaces for exchanging data with other components. A special interface is provided that allows to use MediaLooks' or third-party DirectShow filters as plugins.
Supported Development Environments
- Visual C++
- .NET (C#, Visual Basic)
- VB6
- Delphi
- C++Builder
No DirectShow expertise required!
