How To: Find a certain DirectShow Filter
The MontiVision Workbench application
shows all available filters in the "filter bars". These bars are
only visible after selecting a filter type. On the left side of the
main window there are five buttons to show or hide them. You can
make a filter visible by simply clicking on one of these buttons.
Each filter bar has three categories (Source, Transform and
Renderer) and each category may have additional subcategories. The
MontiVision Workbench sorts every available filter into one of
these, and unknown filter types are listed in the "General" filter
bar under the "General" subcategory. To find out more look at
the filter
sorting help pages.
If you cannot find the filter in any of
the filter bars, you can open the Sort Filter
Dialog. There is a list of all all available filters on
the left. Once you find your filter, you can select it and the
combo boxes on the right side will refresh themselves,
revealing where to find the filter in the relevant filter
bar.
If the filter is not available on the
filter bar, then make sure that the filter is installed and
registered on your system.
