This is really an implementation question rather than a language question.
Please direct future implementation questions to newsgroups devoted to your
implementation.

Did you tell your implementation to link Vfw32.lib? Having it in the same
directory is not sufficient.

Tell your implementation that you want a console application, not a GUI
program.

Around here, members of the VFW (Veterans of Foreign Wars) would
probably be very unhappy with anyone who tried to link them to mpeg1
source code.

Considering what it was they did that qualified them to join the VFW,
even if it was some time ago for many of them, I personally wouldn't
want to try to link them against their wishes.
