wmv files

[w***@hotmail.com]

Hello

I tryed to post this on other NGs, java and c++ news groups. I didnt
get any answer there, so Im suspecting that what I want to do is not
possible with those technologies. Searching on the internet it seems
to be more than possible that direct show is the one suited to
accomplish this task.

As I am completly new to direct show I wonder first if it is really
possible to do what I want to do, and second, where whould a newbie
begin in order to program with direct show. The question is:

Is it possible to:


1 - Retrieve the length in minutes or seconds of a wmv-file
2 - cut this file, creating a new one. If there is a wmv-file that is
35 minutes, I need to create a new file that contains from minute 1
to
minute 25 of the original wmv-file.

How did you miss all the posts in this newsgroup that say "This newsgroup
is no longer active"?

I recommend you read one of them.
