Just curious, does Vista support MDX straight off, or does it have to be installed by the user?

I tried simple pixel-based skin detection using YCrCb color space, It worked fine but not for every Image, i guess it's becoz of the Thresholds (Cr,Cb)i have selected, Can any 1 tell me or refer me a fast algorithm becoz mine take lots of time in detection.....???

Does anyone know how to read frame types from mpeg file?
I want to know if this frame is frame I, P or B
Some source code would be appreciated
Thanks

Does anybody know if DXSmith is a good wrapper for DirectX? Before I get too involved in implementing it, I mean. ?

hi all...
we are having a problm in our graduate project... in some phase in the project we needed to do meshing and triangulation for a person in a 2D image, wihch did succefully, thx God (now we have the vertices and triangles connecting them)... the next step is to prform texture mapping to our generated mesh... but after we set texture positions rendering the textured mesh... the output of texture mapping on my laptop wasn't properly drawn... although it's working properly at our supervisor's pc!! can anybody plz hlp us find a reason for this...
I'm sending a link having the original img and the output of the texture mapping on my laptop...
http://www.geocities.com/naroqueen/texture.html
we are using DirectX 9.0 in our texture mapping

Hi naroqueen
My first thought is that you're laptop sux. But perhaps a more thought out response is to ask what graphics card you have in your laptop. It's obviously approximating the texture, but not shading across primitives. The fact that it works on your supervisors PC suggests the code is good, and that it's your laptop that is the problem... So look at the differences in system and setup.

sorry I don't know what do you mean by "you're laptop sux"...
secondly my display card is "Mobile Intel(R) 945GM Express Chipset Family" with graphics accelerator... my supervisor is working on wondows vista and I'm working on win xp media center..
may this affect our problem???

Ouch! This isn't a good card to use with intensive graphics. Generally, you want a bit more "oomph" than this.

These are know to have numerous issues even though intel tends to talk up their capabilities. If you can, get access to a hardy desktop machine with a solid dedicated gpu.

Hello,
I am new to DirectX.I didn't know about mesh picking in directx.
http://www.experts-exchange.com/Programming/Game/Q_21257512.html[^]
I referred above site.But this code not performing mesh picking.When I pick cube mesh using mouse, I need to highlight selected part triangle. How to do it? Please anyone help me. Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I'm just about to look at mesh-picking myself, so when i work it out, I'll post my findings.
Gavin.

Well i got the mesh-picking working. But as i understand it, if you want to pick primitives, you have to write your own collision code, accessing the meshes vert collection. I was going to work it out until i decided that it would be easier to just break my terrain down into meshes. So until i have a more specific need to pick primitives, you're on your own.

Hai Gavin W,
I tried mesh picking using airplane.x file.I render the airplane in wireframe(in drawmesh function).I call below MeshPick function in Mouse down function.
private bool MeshPick(Mesh mesh, int x, int y)
{
Vector3 v3Near = new Vector3(x, y, 0);
Vector3 v3Far = new Vector3(x, y, 1);
IntersectInformation closestHit;
v3Near.Unproject(device.Viewport,device.Transform.Projection,
device.Transform.View, device.Transform.World);
v3Far.Unproject(device.Viewport, device.Transform.Projection,device.Transform.View,device.Transform.World);
v3Far.Subtract(v3Near);
if (mesh.Intersect(v3Near, v3Far, out closestHit))
{
return true;
}
else
return false;
}
How to get intersected vertices and how to Highlight intersected triangle? I have no idea? Please help me.Thanks in advance.

Hai,
I am beginner in the development of filters using DirectX.We are in the process of developing codecs for mpeg2/mpeg4. May i know how we can find the stream type whether it is a audio stream, video stream or an data stream using FOURCC.
Thanks and Regards

Hi Everyone
Can someone please assist me with the following : I have attached a basic paint app. The zooming works fine, but the rulers disappear when I scroll horizontally or vertically. I need the rulers to stay fixed like for example MS Word's rulers.
If anyone would be so kind as to take a look, I can mail you the app.
Thank you very much
|

Draw the rulers outside of the area you draw the image in, so they are not affected by the zoom action.

Hi,
I have a simple DirectX app which raises a NullReferenceException when i exit the app, the exception is raised at the vDevice.Clear(...) instruction. What i don't understand is how that code can even be reached when i have < if (vDevice != null) > enclosing it. This seems illogical to me.
if (vDevice != null)
{
// Render DirectX components
vDevice.Clear(ClearFlags.Target | ClearFlags.ZBuffer, Color.SlateGray, 1.0F, 0);
vDevice.BeginScene();
...
If anyone can help, it would be much appreciated.
Gavin
PS. Oh and hi everyone, this is actually my first post, I'm studying 3D Animation but enjoy fiddling with C#/directx in my own time.

vDevice is null?

My debugging skills are probably not very developed, but yes, that's what it looks like to me. Funny thing is, now it doesn't throw that exception in windowed mode, but if i start in fullscreen mode the exception will be thrown. It looks like at the breakpoint (at the vDevice.Clear instruction) -- that's where the yellow arrow is ! -- the device, textures and VertexBuffers are all disposed, as should be the case during termination. But still, the code logic says that the vDevice.Clear instruction wont be reached if vDevice == null.
I now think that the yellow arrow indicates the next instruction to be executed, as indicated by it's tooltip. Though it is the vDevice.Clear() line that is highlighted in yellow and has the Exception Helper attached. I consider the following possibilites :
1. The device is being disposed after the (device != null) test and before the next instruction. That seems ridiculous to me, and would render code logic breakable.
2. The (device != null) test is not working as i expect. Is there something i've forgotten about null comparisons.
3. The device still exists, but it is the device.Clear method that is raising the Exception because although the device exists, it is disposed and has no PresentParams.
Just typing this 3rd option, im thinking that's the case. And I'll try either setting device=null after it is disposed or setting an appState=suspended after device is disposed and test the appState instead.

Have you tried a try/catch and setting a breakpoint in the catch so you can see what is null ? Perhaps the method itself can throw that exception ?

I think you're right ! I think it is the method itself that is raising the exception. I wasn't thinking properly about the Device still existing while being disposed, which would raise an Exception. Clearly I have to properly handle a lost device, which I haven't been able to do properly.
Thanks guys

You should not be checking whether the device is null. Instead, you should be checking whether the device has been disposed or not.

I want to convert an RGB Image To YCrCb Image. every site i looked at, i just found the formulas to get Y,Cr,Cb values for corresponding RGB values. now what should i do with these Y,cr,Cb values to get the Resultant Image... ???

repeat them for every x,y of the image.
