ActiveX or COM object for VB?

[dchapma1]

Hi All,

Does anyone know of an activeX control or COM (dll) object that can take a DV camera output and encode it into ready to burn DVD format.

Basically I would like to be able to read in a digital video camera's output and generate the appropriate VOB, IFO, BUP file structure so I can burn it to a DVD.

I am writing in VB6, and may move to VB.Net. Although I do not like the overhead that .net introduces along with the requirement that target machines have to have the Framework.

Thanks much!

P.S. GREAT site and Forums!

Hi dchapma1,

I think you're going to be out of luck on this. I don't even know of a COM object that will mux mpeg2 and output to the directory structure, much less decode, re-encode, and mux. If you really want to do this, I would suggest you brush up on your C++ and take a look over at the DirectShow docs over at the MSDN. Good luck.
