Directshow-based Multimedia Software Development

As the development of computer and Internet, more and more multi-media enter our life. People can enjoy many new movies and TV programs, visible talking with people faraway without going out. Of course, all of these depend on the strong functions of software. In this article, we focus on how to use the new DirectShow technical develop multi-media software. Moreover, we develop a real software.Firstly, we discussed the process of developing software by DirectShow. It includes the developing envirement, designe theory, software architechture, audio/video capture, encode, decode methods and many others. Secondly, I introduced the way of writing DirectShow components. It is mainly about the different methods of designing Filters. We also discussed some knowledge of Windows COM programming. Then we introduced the whole procedure of writing this software, including SDK and high-level application. Since Linux and embedded system are used wildly, finally, we talk about how can we transplant Windows application to LINUX and embedded system. After the transplant, the server end of the is in LINUX system, and the client end is Windows application.
