AVI Draw Filter

  • Article

[The feature associated with this page, DirectShow, is a legacy feature. It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation. Those features have been optimized for Windows 10 and Windows 11. Microsoft strongly recommends that new code use MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation instead of DirectShow, when possible. Microsoft suggests that existing code that uses the legacy APIs be rewritten to use the new APIs if possible.]

The AVI Draw filter is pulled automatically into a playback graph instead of the AVI Decompressor when video is being output to an external NTSC television monitor.

Remarks

Since the AVI Draw filter and the VFW Capture Filter both connect to the same hardware, they cannot be in the same filter graph.
