[h323plus] DirectShow support (was Problem with Logitech camera)

[Simon Horne]

Looks like some changes in ptlib and <ptlib/dshow.h> no longer works.

Remove the line and see if the directshow video input device is loaded.
Sometimes (and and for me it didn't automatically load)

If not then add.
#include <ptlib/msos/ptlib/vidinput_directx.h>

which is what <ptlib/dshow.h> should be an alias for

  Hi,

  I've downloaded the latest version of PTLib from SVN and in fact, in configure.ac there is a section about directshow. When I compile PTLib, configure detects DirectShow support and enabled it. But my problem is that when I try to compile Simple or MyPhone2 to make tests, both fail because they have an #include <ptlib/dshow.h>, and there is no such header file. What am I doing wrong? Where can I found that file?

  BR,

  Unless there is an section in configure.ac in your version of ptlib for diectshow I would not just define it. Let configure find it if both pwlib version supports it and it get detected. The original version of directshow was only for mingw however it has since been ported to VS and added to the configure.ac to autodetect support.

    Hi,

    Is it possible to have DirectShow enabled on native Windows simply by defining P_DIRECTSHOW in ptbuildopts.h? Is it necessary any other work?
