hi, my question has two parts: 1. how can i cause media player (or any other player that uses direct show) to first try to use my codec, and if not installed use another codec thats compatible?
I tries playing with the avi file’s fourCC codes but did not succeed
2. this question might be related to the previous one: in an avi header there are two places to specify a codec: on is in the Stream Header (fccHandler) and the other is in the Stream Format (biCompression). what is the difference between them and can i use this to achieve my goal from question 1
