Loading and Previewing a Project
[The feature associated with this page, DirectShow, is a legacy feature. It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation. Those features have been optimized for Windows 10 and Windows 11. Microsoft strongly recommends that new code use MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation instead of DirectShow, when possible. Microsoft suggests that existing code that uses the legacy APIs be rewritten to use the new APIs if possible.]
[This API is not supported and may be altered or unavailable in the future.]

It presents a sample application that loads an XML project file into an empty timeline and renders the timeline for preview. You can modify the sample application to work with any example XML project file that ships with this SDK.
