I have a desktop App written in MS VC++.  I'd like to add some video capability: show various formats, grab still frame, maybe very simple editing.  What kind of SDKs are available and good?  Is there a need for me to go to C# to get the latest/best, or can I stick with my familiar C++ world?

Video SDK for desktop C++ App?

C++ is an intermediate-level general-purpose programming language, not to be confused with C or C#. It was developed as a set of extensions to the C programming language to improve type-safety and add support for automatic resource management, object-orientation, generic programming, and exception handling, among other features.
