Alternative Video Renderers

This topic describes some of the more complicated implementation requirements of a renderer; these apply to most renderers, although some aspects are video-specific (such as EC_REPAINT and other notifications). In particular, it discusses how to handle various notifications, state changes, and format changes. It also provides a summary of the notifications that a renderer is responsible for sending to the filter graph manager.

The following topics provide additional information:
