AudioVideoPlayback... simple application... should work!

[Vodzurk]

Hi Guys,

Im quite screwed (bye bye job) if I cant get this to work...

What Im trying to do... render a video into a Direct3D fullscreen window via a texture.

The approach I have taken is to use AudioVideoPlayback.

For reasons unknown, all my attempts crash after 5-500secs. There is also a symptom of the dx window occasionaly flickering.

Ive attached the full visual studio project for the skeleton attempt.

The Error message reads:-
An unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit, the application will be shut down immediately. Error in the application.

And in the error message dropdown bit (typed, since its on another machine and i cant be bothered transfering):-

*********** Exception Text *************
Error in the application -2146232832 (Unknown) at Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3D.Device.PresentInternal(tagRECT* sourceRectangle, tagRECT* destRectangle, IntPtr overrideWindow)

Please dont just reply with "Use Windows Media Player Control", I quite simply dont understand the integration of managed directx9 and wmp, plus, this seems a fraction away from actually working... grrrr.

Help!!!! Please!!!
