You are basically asking the same question again. What have you tried? What API are you using to interact with video? What is your actual problem? Be more specific.

I am basically gathering information yet. As i told you that i dont have any idea of multimedia in C#. So i need the full information. Googling lead me to DirectShow .net library. Is this library enough for my requirements. What i need is:
We have a in-house channels of Movies. We want to play ads in that channel. The ads can be a:
1) standalone ad
2) A strip (like news headlines in various channels)
3) An L-shaped ad (like shown in some sports channels)
these ads will be in swf/avi/wmv/mp4 etc formats.
In addition, we want to have a scheduler for playing movies(basically a queue)/ads(managed on timely based)/Logo(for the in-house channel i.e an image or an animated image or video format).
These are the basic requirements for the project.
I want to learn multimedia coding in c#, so need a kind response.

Thanks for reply.
What mean of "a third party library" ? 
Thanks.We are haven't bug,just temporarily undecided problems.
|
|
|
|
|
It means that library was created by other people/company. Some phones uses JAVA
|
|

|

I develop apps for the iPhone. I have to use Apples iPhone SDK to create and compile the application. Apple does not support C# but instead use Xcode for iPhone apps. So in this example, the third-party library would be the iPhone SDK.
I hope this helps.

Hi folks,
I'd like your comments on the following requirement...
I need to create a TIF image or PDF file based on a structured layout from a data file.
The data file has the required values to be plug on the form to be converted into TIF or PDF.
For example, the data file will have the invoice values as displayed here[^]. Of course, the data file will contain several records which corresponds to one single image or PDF per record.
The app is to be written as an unattended console app, so it parses the data file, exports the images to a network folder and sends a notification once is finished.
How do you suggest to implement this requirement?
I thought about...
* Creating Crystal reports, but not sure if you can create them from a console app.
* Creating HTML source for the layout, and print them to either TIF or PDF somehow.
Your support is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
...Alex

Great!
It seems the MigraDoc[^] component will work on this scenario.
Thank you,

Hey,
I'm suffering an issue of reading and displaying a huge text file (>=300MB) in a textbox.
I found that the maximum string I can read into memory is about 250MB because of the limitation of the RAM and also likely related to the limitation of the .net component. (when the text is very large to display in a textbox, out of memory exception will be thrown)
So in this case, the only way we can do is to show the text file on demand, which is likely what the UltraEdit does.
Could anyone give me some tips or solutions about this issue?
Thanks in advance.

Use your own scrollbars (HScrollBar, VScrollBar). Set the Maximum on the HScrollBar to the size of the textfile / 80 (or whatever average line length you think would be appropriate). When somebody scrolls, you can approximate where they are in the file and load up that text into a fixed-size TextBox. When you change the text as they scroll, you'll want to remember the position of the caret and the selected text so you can reapply them after you change the text. Also, intercept key presses for up/down/left/right/page down/page up/etc so you can implement those functions yourself. For the HScrollBar Maximum, default it to 80. Like the VScrollBar, you should use the position of the HScrollBar to scroll through the fixed-size textbox (which really means changing the text in the textbox.
In a background thread, scan through the entire text file to find line breaks and actual line widths and the number of lines in the file. Store the positions of the line breaks in a file (text file, binary file, SQL Server CE file) so that you can get information about a given line by looking at that file (this helps you avoid using RAM). Once you have scanned the entire file, you can adjust the Maximum for the HScrollBar and VScrollBar to the actual values (i.e., the number of lines in the file and the number of characters in the widest line). Having the offset of the line beginnings stored in a file will allow you to instantly determine where in the text file the data is for a given line number. This will allow you to create perfect scrolling that is virtually instantaneous (the scrolling will be instantaneous and approximate up until you have loaded everything from the text file).
It gets a little more complicated if you want to allow the user to make edits. In that case, you'd probably want to asynchronously load each line of the file into a SQL Server CE database. Whenever an edit is made, you'd have to intercept it (e.g., via keypress) and made the corresponding edit to that line in the database. If you want to save the file, you'd then store each of those lines in the database back to the text file. Or, if you want all edits to immediately be saved to the text file, you could just avoid the database altogether.
There are other details you'll probably have to worry about, but I trust you can figure them out. Note that SQL Server CE has a maximum size of about 4GB. If you need larger than that, you can choose another database format or use your own file format.

Hi aspdotnetdev,
Thank you very much for giving me so detailed tips.
Yes, that's what I'm trying to implement.
A good news is that the textbox will be readonly, user only has the read, find, print options for this huge text.

that sounds like extreme non-sense; who in his right mind is going to read one huge page of text like that?

I only read code that is properly formatted, adding PRE tags is the easiest way to obtain that. All Toronto weekends should be extremely wet until we get it automated in regular forums, not just QA.

There are instances where this is necessary. For example, log files. A person might want to start reading a log file, starting with the last entry (at the end of the text file) and moving up to older entries. Or maybe search through the text to find what they are looking for.

that certainly does not make sense to me; if I were to need that amount of information, I would never show all of it on screen at once, I would instead provide means to view parts of it, have it searched, sorted, whatever is relevant.
When you have a modern PC with 1+ GHHz CPU and a 2+ gigabytes of memory, you can and must do better than just dump hundreds of megabytes of text in the user's face and leave him at a loss.

Well it would be impossible to "show all of it on screen at once"... there would have to be some way to page through the text (like a scroll bar). Searching is another example of how to page through the data (you only jump to lines you are interested in).
Luc Pattyn wrote: you can and must do better than just dump hundreds of megabytes of text in the user's face and leave him at a loss
Just because the user wants to display the text in a text box does not mean that is all he/she wants to do. There could be additional features (such as search).

with 300MB of text, you get some 5M lines; when the screen is 1000 pixels high, one scrollbar pixel corresponds to 5000 lines. Are you ever going to touch the elevator and get to see what you are hoping for?

So you have 2 vertical scrollbars. One which scrolls the full height, one which scrolls 5000 lines at a time. Or you have a scrollbar and a slider so the user can control the amount the scrollbar scrolls. Or you let the user use page up/page down. Or you assume they will probably be using the search function. Or you take the horizontal position of the mouse into account when scrolling vertically... more to the right and you scroll more and more to the left means you scroll smaller increments. Or you allow the user to jump to a specific line or jump a certain number of lines down/up. Could even have a textbox (or slider) that controls the number of lines a page down/page up will jump. There are many ways this could be solved. No reason to put an artificial limit on the size file that can be viewed.

I know, but that does not mean I want to see all their content, I want the app to present a decent user interface, not a truck load of data.

If it is a log file, I suggest saving it with xml node info. This can then be hooked to some database (file to xml) technique to enable search features. Also, it will be more organized data.
If this log file is not created by you, then it sounds like a daunting task.
Dengbo wrote: So you have 2 vertical scrollbars. One which scrolls the full height, one which scrolls 5000 lines at a time
This gives me an idea. What you can do is not to have text in the textbox. Show only the info that the user wants.
Instead of adding ScrollBars, add buttons to scroll page up or down. This will enable a paging possibility and it will be easier to handle too.

FYI, you misattributed that quote... I wrote that.
Som Shekhar wrote: add buttons to scroll page up or down
That is what the PAGE UP/PAGE DOWN buttons would do. It would be, however, quite slow when paging 5,000 lines or so.
Som Shekhar wrote: Instead of adding ScrollBars
Why not have both ScrollBars and PAGE UP/PAGE DOWN functionality?
