<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=871531912-23102006>I'm trying to view
my DirectShow Source Filter in VLC. The trouble is that the mediasubtype of the
output pin of my filter is DIVX fourcc and from what I can see in the VLC source
code (filter.cpp and dshow.cpp), VLC is not willing to negotiate this
mediasubtype. I can't think of any reason why this is not supported, my guess is
simply that this part of VLC has been neglected for a while. My intention was to
update the GetFourCCFromMediaType function to allow for the DIVX fourcc. This
may or may not fix the problem.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial><SPAN class=871531912-23102006><FONT size=2>Having read
the instructions on building VLC and already spent a few hours on it, I realise
I could spend a couple of days actually setting up my machine just to build VLC
and it would be far more cost effective to have someone else who is already set
up to do the work for me. If anyone is interested (preferably with an insight
into the problem) please post a message to the topic "</FONT><A class=nav
