Dear All,
I want to create a high-speed imaging application and I am currently
sing the built-in GDI+ imaging controls, methods, etc. However, on Bob
Powell's website, he said to check out DirectX to do this. But I am not well
versed in C++ or C#, I am relatively new to those languages, I have more
experience and therefore am more comfortable in Visual Basic. Can I use
DirectX in Visual Basic.Net or will I have to learn C# or C++. I want to
learn these languages anyway, but I also want to get this imaging
application out of the way. (I finally want to FINISH a project I start, you
know.) Thank you very much in advance for your time and consideration in
this matter.
Sincerely,
Christopher Koeber

Dear Ken,
Thanks, I am using it now. I know that Direct3d is based on mosly 3d
stuff, hence the name, but I want to use mosely 2d stuff. Do you know where
are the 2d related functions, methods, etc. or maybe any websites and
documentation that has this info. The DirectX Docs are concentrated on 3d
related information, which is way over my head. (Not that I don't want to
learn it, it is interesting stuff). Thank you very much for your time and
consideration in this matter.

Thank you very much.
That was helpful but what about the imaging stuff. I know that directx has
the better imaging implementation for regular graphics like PNGs, BMPs, and
JPEGs but I can't find it. The closest thing that I got was textures, is
that what I will have to work with? Again, thank you very much for your time

if you download the DirectX 9.0c SDK it contains a managed .NET set of
examples, you can find everything you could possibly need in the sample
viewer for images, video, sound, and of course 3D

Brian,
I haven't had the time to look at the SDK examples yet. But since it seems
that you have, I'm just wondering if there are any .Net examples of how to
overlay text/bitmaps over a video source (i.e., AVI, MPEG or WMF video
files)?
