I have an application i did some time ago when im loading the video file its ok when trying to play/use the file im getting the messageBox message say that its need a codec to use gspot or search the internet.
Wehn im playing this files on my hard disk with Windows Media Play or either QuickTime there is no problems.
The Video files for example name are: MVI_2483 in the file name properties i see its type:
Quick Time Movie (.MOV)
In my application im using DirectShowLib-2005.dll this is the class im using in my case to extract the video file im using it in my application to extract only lightnings from the video file name.
In Form1 i have a button click event that just starting the action:
private void button8_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
viewToolStripMenuItem.Enabled = false;
fileToolStripMenuItem.Enabled = false;
button2.Enabled = false;
label14.Visible = false;
label15.Visible = false;
label21.Visible = false;
label22.Visible = false;
label24.Visible = false;
label25.Visible = false;
ExtractAutomatic = true;
DirectoryInfo info = new DirectoryInfo(_videoFile);
string dirName = info.Name;
automaticModeDirectory = dirName + "_Automatic";
subDirectoryName = _outputDir + "\\" + automaticModeDirectory;
if (secondPass == true)
{
Start(true);
}
Start(false);
}
This is the function start in Form1:
private void Start(bool secondpass)
{
setpicture(-1);
if (Directory.Exists(_outputDir) && secondpass == false)
{
}
else
{
Directory.CreateDirectory(_outputDir);
}
if (ExtractAutomatic == true)
{
string subDirectory_Automatic_Name = _outputDir + "\\" + automaticModeDirectory;
Directory.CreateDirectory(subDirectory_Automatic_Name);
f = new WmvAdapter(_videoFile,
Path.Combine(subDirectory_Automatic_Name));
}
else
{
string subDirectory_Manual_Name;
if (Directory.Exists(subDirectoryName))
{
subDirectory_Manual_Name = subDirectoryName;
f = new WmvAdapter(_videoFile,
Path.Combine(subDirectory_Manual_Name));
}
else
{
subDirectory_Manual_Name = _outputDir + "\\" + averagesListTextFileDirectory + "_Manual";
Directory.CreateDirectory(subDirectory_Manual_Name);
f = new WmvAdapter(_videoFile,
Path.Combine(subDirectory_Manual_Name));
}
}
button1.Enabled = false;
f.Secondpass = secondpass;
f.FramesToSave = _fts;
f.FrameCountAvailable += new WmvAdapter.FrameCountEventHandler(f_FrameCountAvailable);
f.StatusChanged += new WmvAdapter.EventHandler(f_StatusChanged);
f.ProgressChanged += new WmvAdapter.ProgressEventHandler(f_ProgressChanged);
this.Text = "Processing Please Wait...";
label5.ForeColor = Color.Green;
label5.Text = "Processing Please Wait";
button8.Enabled = false;
button5.Enabled = false;
label5.Visible = true;
pictureBox1.Image = Lightnings_Extractor.Properties.Resources.Weather_Michmoret;
Hrs = 0; //number of hours
Min = 0; //number of Minutes
Sec = 0; //number of Sec
timeElapsed = 0;
label10.Text = "00:00:00";
label11.Visible = false;
label12.Visible = false;
label9.Visible = false;
label8.Visible = false;
this.button1.Enabled = false;
myTrackPanelss1.trackBar1.Enabled = false;
this.checkBox2.Enabled = false;
this.checkBox1.Enabled = false;
numericUpDown1.Enabled = false;
timer1.Start();
label2.Text = "";
label1.Visible = true;
label2.Visible = true;
label3.Visible = true;
label4.Visible = true;
f.Start();
}

I remember i had this codec problem/s before and i installed the codec/'s that were needed but in this case both quick time and windows media player can play the video files so why the application cant detect and find the codec/'s on my computer ? Gspot say that the codec is AVC1 but again wmp and quicktime play the video files no problems.
The video files are from my digital camera !
