Creating Thumbnails for Video file(wmv)

Hai

I want to create a thumbnail image from a video file by using c#, which
is used to display a video file. Can anyone tell about this.

Nothing in C# or .NET will do this. But you can use DirectShow's
IMediaDet interface to accomplish that. I believe that there's a .NET
wrapper for DirectShow (called "dshow.net" or "directshow.net " or
something like that...I forget the exact name, but Google will show you
easily).

We've done it using 3-rd party controls. Not positive, but the vendor
name was Pegasus or something similar. We were taking the first frame,
but it was not always goo so we included some logic to scroll forward
a few frames to grab one for a thumbnail.

Question, can I see an event in Javascript that tells me a video starts playing using the <embed src="file.wmv>. I stream the video, but there is a wait time and wanted to pop up a message telling the user it is buffering until the video actually begins to play in the browser. Thanks for any help! JJ
