How do I access this format on Windows 7 Ultimate..... I want to pull out the video frames of files with a .mov extension (and even the sound) - From my camera videos.... I'd rather avoid COM if I can but any suggestions are welcome.... I read somewhere some time back about possibly the encoder/decoder as standard on W7 Ultimate for H.264 but I cant remember exactly what I read.... Currently I use the avifil32.dll library for my movie editing code so this would be the ideal solution.... Currently my code isn't fully working (in upgrades) and I'd like to know before I continue if I am doomed to fail :biggrin: or if it is possible to continue with this path....

hi Peter
i think you (1) need the codec, and (2) need to have it enabled
both may already be done for you under win 7

but - here are some guys that know a lot about getting it running

i would try to get the machine to render a H.264 movie file before trying to write code for it
that way, you know it's capable and enabled before you start   :P
