so how do you put the DirectShow Filters in ImgBurn?

[ElBoricua433]

so how do I install the filters inside ImgBurn since ImgBurn has directshow in it? how do I install filters inside ImgBurn?

You don't install them inside ImgBurn, the filters are installed for the whole system to use.

 

Normally when you get the filters you aren't given options about where to install them, they're just installed.

 

ImgBurn calls up DirectShow and DirectShow knows where to find them.

Thank You, Now I understand how the whole thing works, so is DirectShow inside ImgBurn?

[LIGHTNING UK!]

No, DirectShow is part of DirectX which is part of the Operating System.

 

So basically, no, it's just something built into Windows.

Thanks for Clearing Up Everything, I appreciate it

This should clarify a little more:

 

Programs only ask DirectShow to play ("render") something. DirectShow is part of Windows. So basically, programs are asking Windows to play something. If Windows can play it, the program can play it.

 

Since Windows Media Player is pretty much a front-end for DirectShow, you can bank on using WMP to test if ImgBurn can play something. If it can't, ImgBurn wouldn't be able to. If you want to make ImgBurn be able to read something, Google around for how to make Windows Media Player play it.
