Is VFW still available ?

Has the older VFW Video For Windows driver been included with the new
Windows Vista for backward compatibility or has it been dropped in favor of
directx.

Does direct show reply as if it's VFW? I have some older software that
won't install unless VFW is on the system.

Hi,

Windows Vista just went into beta. It is way to early to tell.
