Sorry. That sounds like something meant for C++. Most of this sounds like pretty key stuff like the timer. Didn't anyone do a basic proof of concept first to flush this stuff out? Just curious.
- beagle3 15y agoYes, they did a proof of concept using the MediaElement, with windows driven playing -- that actually works. And they assumed that fine timing control, different codecs, frame accuracy etc would be available if needed. I agree it's meant for C++ on Windows (if it is meant for Windows at all - the 15ms timer precision thing runs so deep it bites in many places you wouldn't expect). But Microsoft and MS fanboys keep touting that "C# is all you need to get things done" - that has never been the case, and I expect it not to be the case with WinRT either.
