Using LEADTOOLS DVR Components to Create a DirectShow Player Application

Perform the following steps to create and run a multimedia player DVR application using the LEADTOOLS Multimedia ConvertCtrl and PlayCtrl controls and the DVR components of the LEADTOOLS MPEG-2 Transport Module.

  1. Start Visual Studio .NET.

  2. Choose File->New->Project... from the menu.

  3. In the New Project dialog box, choose either "Visual C# Projects" or "VB Projects" in the Projects Type List, and choose "Windows Forms Application " in the Templates List.

  4. Type the project name as "Multimedia Player DVR" in the Project Name field, and then choose OK. If desired, type a new location for your project or select a directory using the Browse button, and then click OK.

  5. To add a reference to the Leadtools.Multimedia.dll right-click the "References" folder in the Solution Explorer window. Select "Add Reference..." from the context menu. In the "Add Reference" dialog box, select the ".NET" tab and select Leadtools.Multimedia.dll and click OK.

  6. Next, add the reference to the LEADTOOLS COM Objects. Right-click the "References" folder, and select "Add Reference..." from the context menu. In the "Add Reference" dialog box, select the "COM" tab and select the following:

    • LEAD MPEG-2 Transport Multiplexer Library
    • LEAD MPEG2 Transport Demultiplexer Library
    • LEAD DVR Sink Library

    Note: The above COM objects must be registered; in case they were not; using regsvr32. For more information, refer to DirectShow Registry-free Activation. Next click OK to add the references.

  7. Make sure Form1 is in design view. Go to the toolbox (View->Toolbox) and drag a ConvertCtrl control and a PlayCtrl control on the form. NOTE: If you do not have ConvertCtrl or PlayCtrl controls in your toolbox, select Tools->Choose Toolbox Items from the menu. Click Browse and then select Leadtools.Multimedia.dll from "<LEADTOOLS_INSTALLDIR>\Bin\Dotnet\Win32" and then click Open and then click OK. After adding these controls to the form, set the following properties:

    Property Value
    Name _convertctrl
    Anchor Top, Left
    BackColor Black
    Name _playctrl
    Anchor Top, Bottom, Left, Right
    AutoStart False
  8. Go to the toolbox (View->Toolbox) and drag a Text control on the form (below the convert control) and set the following properties:

    Property Value
    Name _txtSrcFile
    Anchor Bottom, Left
    Locked True
  9. Go to the toolbox (View->Toolbox) and drag a Button control to the right of the text control and set the following properties:

    Property Value
    Name _buttonBrowse
    Text ...
    Anchor Bottom, Left
  10. Go to the toolbox (View->Toolbox) and drag a TrackBar control on the form (below the play control) and set the following properties:

    Property Value
    Name _track
    Anchor Bottom, Left, Right
    Maximum 10000
  11. Go to the toolbox (View->Toolbox) and drag six Button controls to the bottom of the form (first one below the convert control and the others below the play control) and set the following properties:

    Property Value
    Name _buttonStartStop
    Text Start
    Anchor Bottom, Left
    Property Value
    Name _buttonStop
    Text Stop
    Anchor Bottom, Right
    Property Value
    Name _buttonPlayMPEG2StreamWithDVRBuffer
    Text Play MPEG2 Stream With DVR Buffer
    Anchor Bottom, Right
    Property Value
    Name _buttonPlayDVRBufferFile
    Text Play DVR Buffer File
    Anchor Bottom, Right
    Property Value
    Name _buttonSetDVRBufferLocations
    Text Set DVR Buffer Locations
    Anchor Bottom, Right
    Property Value
    Name _buttonCopyBufferedDVRData
    Text Copy Buffered DVR Data
    Anchor Bottom, Right
  12. Switch Form1 to code view (right-click Form1 in the Solution Explorer then choose View Code) and add the following lines to the beginning of the file:

    VB
          Imports Leadtools.Multimedia 
          Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices 
          Imports LMMpg2MxTLib 
          Imports LMMpgDmxTLib 
          Imports LMDVRSinkLib 
           

    C#
          using Leadtools.Multimedia; 
          using System.Runtime.InteropServices; 
          using LMMpg2MxTLib; 
          using LMMpgDmxTLib; 
          using LMDVRSinkLib; 
           

  13. Declare the following private variable:

    VB
          Private Const SLIDER_MAX As Integer = 10000 
          Private _streaming As Boolean = False 
          Private _firstPTS As Double 
          Private _lastPTS As Double 
           

    C#
          Private const int SLIDER_MAX = 10000; 
          Private bool _streaming = false; 
          Private double _firstPTS;

          void _convertCtrl_Complete(object sender, EventArgs e) 
          { 
             if (_streaming == true) 
                _convertCtrl.StartConvert(); 
             else
