• Software Development for Windows Vista Jason Sacks - Alittle information on my confusion please.

• Audio and Video Development Mpeg1 format support?

  Hello everyone, I was trying to rewrite the VideoSource example provided in the MF SDK as a mpeg1 source filter that output two streams (one for video payloads and one for audio payloads). In VideoSource::CreateMediaType() I was supposed to convert a AM_MEDIA_TYPE that presents a mpeg1 video payload media type into a IMFMediaType format, however, the MFCreateMediaTypeFromRepresentation() function does not seems to recognize the AM_MEDIA_TYPE and return E_INVALIDARG. Can someone gives me a hint about what is done in the MFCreateMediaTypeFromRepresentation() and is it currently possible for MF to do mpeg1 file payback, like mpeg decod ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista workflow and web apps

  How do you go about utilizing WWF in a web application I'm currently looking into building a workflow system for publishing web pages in a cms. I've got a basic workflow built and have been testing it using a console application. I need to port this workflow to the web application where users would interact with it using webforms instead of a console app. I'm a little confused on how this would be done in a stateless environment. The workflow is the usual review process... a reviewer receives a notification via email that a page needs to be approved. They log into the web app and do their review and either approve or reject the page. If a ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Team Explorer doesn't respect filesystem encryption settings

  I've got an encrypted folder (called 'Dev') on my laptop where the source is stored. When Team Explorer creates subfolders within the 'Dev' folder the folders are encrypted, but the files it creates are not. I've done this in the past with Source Safe and it worked fine, but it appears that when Team Explorer places a file on the file system it doesn't respect the folder settings for encryption. Even if I manually set the file to be encrypted, the next time I do a get from TFS, it overwrites the file without encryption. Is this a bug or is there a setting somewhere that will fix this I didn't see the TFS ...Show All

• Visual Studio How to add Intellisense to a New Project Type

  Hi. I am new to the forums and extending Visual Studio 2005. I am working on creating a new project type for Visual Studio 2005 using C# and the Managed Package Framework (MPF). I used the examples provided by the SDK and the SDK Help to create a new project type. The new project type is working quite well, but Intellisense on any variables or classes within the project fail to be utilized by Intellisense. Intellisense is still functional on built-in C# objects and responds to the normal methods for invoking it. I have found the same occurs in the Project sample in the SDK. Now, I need to enable Intellisense functionality on the variab ...Show All

• SQL Server Create a table and put it in a file

  When I create a table I can create it in a filegroup, but how do I put it in a file. Example--- I have two files in one filegroup called "Secondary" file A and file B. I want to create a new table called tableA and put it in file B on filegroup Secondary. I looked at bookes online and can't find it. Thanks Thomas Hi, It's part of the CREATE TABLE syntax. CREATE TABLE myTable ( myID int ) ON [Secondary] You cannot control on which file you create it because different files in a filegroup is exactly for spreading the table over multiple files.
