VideoPlayer.LoadForEAX method

VideoPlayer.LoadForEAX method

Remarks

Loads a video from the specified file converting the audio track to Mono for use with EAX effects.

Video loading and rendering is performed through DirectShow so, in order to load a certain video format (like MPEG, MP4, AVI, etc.) the specific codec must be available on the target system or calls to this method would fail. One of the best packages containing most audio and video codecs for DirectShow is K-Lite Codec Pack and can be downloaded for free from the following link.

A successful call to this method will fire the SoundLoaded event.

For further details about the use of the embedded video player see the VideoPlayer object section.

For details about video clips rendering refer to the How to play video files through DirectShow tutorial.
