Players based on the LEADTOOLS Multimedia toolkit can use VFW, DMO or DirectShow video and audio decoders to play WMV files. Media Player requires DMO decoders, VFW video decoders or ACM audio decoders to play WMV files. Therefore, if you have only a DirectShow decoder for a certain compression algorithm and you use that compression in an WMV file, you can play the WMV file in the LEAD Multimedia Player, but not in the Windows Media Player. To solve this problem, you must obtain a VFW version of the decoder in question. Currently, only the following LEAD codecs have VFW versions:
LEAD MCMP/MJPEG Codec
LEAD H.263 Codec
LEAD Screen Capture Codec
Currently, only the following LEAD codecs have DMO versions:
