Windows Media Audio and Video Codec and DSP APIs

  • Artículo

Purpose

The Windows Media Audio and Video codecs and digital signal processors (DSPs) are part of the core of Windows Media technologies. This documentation describes how to directly use the codec and DSP objects provided in Windows Vista. Most of these objects are used in abstracted form through the objects of the Windows Media Format Software Development Kit (SDK) and the Media Foundation SDK. For more information about using those SDKs to encode, decode, and transform audio and video data, refer to the appropriate SDK documentation.

Developer Audience

To use this SDK you should be familiar with either Media Foundation or Direct Show, and have a good understanding of codec technology.
