Not sure why you want to reinvent the wheel, but you have to be familiar with how Multimedia Frameworks[^] work in order to create your own. It is, of course, a lot of effort, since you have to create your own audio/video filters, or at least understand how they work, in order for you to be able to integrate existing filters on your framework. Here[^] is an overview on how multimedia framework works, and its architecture. My suggestion is for you to do a lot of reading regarding the subject matter, and then later on, to download and learn the source codes of some open source frameworks(like VLC) in order to have a better understanding on how they work.

thanks a ton walter! was hoping to do the same! and the reason why i wanted to create my own dll for audio/video is that when i was doing a small project for my course! found it very difficult remember as there are many of third party tools though there are wimm.dll or wimplib.dll and also i wanted to learn as to how these audio/video dll's i.e. the media framework's work!
