You're not going to be able to do the video decoding completely with mono, but you could write a C glue library that decodes the data with GStreamer and then marshals it over to managed land. That's the only answer that I can come up with unless you refine your question a bit. -- Chris Howie http://www.chrishowie.com http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Crazycomputers _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
