VMRMulti9 DIrectshow sample compile problem


Has anyone successfully built and run the VMRMulti9 sample in VS2005 C++ Express?

Has anyone built it in VS2003 or any other version of VS?

If so, could you please send me the project files. Or at least reassure me it can be done!

I've been able to build & run most other Directsshow samples, just not this one - the one I really want!

Cheers,

What errors are you getting - and where did you get the sample from?

I first downloaded the April 2005 platform SDK which has the directshow samples.
These samples have no solution/project files so in VS 2005 C++ Express I went File->New->Project from Existing Code and created the multiplayer sample that way. I seemed to make progress with the compile errors but could not quite crack it. Believe me I made a huge effort over several days. Finally decided it should not be this hard! - since it's supposed to be a ready to go sample!

At the advice of mrblue I downloaded the Summer 2004 DirectX SDK but it has been the same story with this.

I was able to build the dll and gameplayer sub samples, although gameplayer crashes when run!, but its the multiplayer one that I want. I have been building the dll, gameplayer, and multiplayer as seperate solutions, perhaps that's my mistake? I don't think so as they are seperate solutions in directx samples.

I would appreciate help with getting it to build, but at this point, I just want to know if it can be done! And ideally receive the project files to prove it.

Help please!  I haven't much hair left!

Very interesting! I will give Visual C++ 6.0 a go and keep you posted. Cheers.

Yup, no problems in VC 6.0, after additional install of some non-standard mfc files. Thanks!
