Hi,

I want to make an interactive media player. In that I want to provide facility to create hotspot in file and tracking perticular object around which hotspot is drawn. Also I want to add some metadata in the original video file.I want to do it in mpeg4,windows media format, avi format video files.

I read on microsoft's site that directshow has ability to create interactive media file. Is it possible in directshow if it is possible please help me if anyone can.

Thanks in advance.


Regards,
Chirag.

You can certainly do this in DirectShow. You'll have to create a transform filter that draws the hotspot over the video. There are a couple of options for the metadata depending on your needs. It's going to be a bit of work, but it's possible. Smile

The best way to get started is by reading the MSDN documentation for DirectShow and learning the basics. Once you know how DirectShow works and can build simple graphs it will be easier to ask more specific questions when you get stuck.
