Subject: Creating Thumbnails using system SDK

Hi all,

I am writing an application which is supposed to create thumbnail =
pictures out of a rm movie.

There are two ways in doing this:

1. Trying to capture the image from a window playing the video (which =
could be done using the TestPlay sample program).

2. Trying to create my own DIB / DDB out of the RMA_BitmapInfoHeader and =
the UCHAR *pImageBits which is provided in the sample exvsurf.cpp file =
as ExampleVideoSurface::OptimizedBlt(UCHAR* pImageBits, REF(PNxRect) =
rDestRect, REF(PNxRect) rSrcRect)

As strange as this may seem, I would prefer using the SECOND option, as =
this software should eventually run on Unix.

Has anybody done anything like that an could give me a few pointers (or =
even raw code)? I tried messing around with the RMA_BitmapInfoHeader and =
bits, but got nowhere...

I would really appreciate if anybody could e-mail the forum or me =
personally.

Thanks,

Noam
