INFO: Win95 Video Capture Drivers Must be 16-Bit (165720)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Win32 Device Driver Kit (DDK) Windows 95
This article was previously published under Q165720 SUMMARY
Windows 95 video capture drivers must be 16-bit to work with Video For
Windows.
MORE INFORMATION
Under Windows 95, video capture drivers cannot be 32-bit if you want them
to communicate with Video For Windows. Video For Windows requires 16-bit
video capture drivers. It is possible for the 16-bit video capture driver
to thunk to a 32-bit dll, but Video For Windows assumes the video capture
driver is 16-bit. If you want to use a 32-bit video capture driver, then
you cannot use Video For Windows API's and you must establish your own
interface between the application and 32-bit video capture driver.
You can use MSVC 1.5x to build video capture drivers since it is a 16-bit
compiler. MSVC 2.0 and above are 32-bit compilers.
