Using Directshow Filters in XTL Test
Using the Ball Filter in a DirectShow Editing Services Project
Here's a little trick you can do with the Ball filter, once you've added seeking functionality. Paste the following into a text file named ball.xtl:
Change the string "Example.avi" to the name of a video file on your system. Now compile the XtlTest sample that comes with the Microsoft DirectX® 8.1 SDK, and run it from the command line:
xtltest ball.xtl
You will see the ball bounce in front of the video clip. This XTL file creates a DirectShow Editing Services project with two video tracks. One track contains the video from the source file, and the other uses the Ball filter to generate the video. The XTL file also defines a chroma key transition, which composites the two video images. The chroma key uses the Ball filter's black background as the key color. This works because DirectShow Editing Services can use a source filter as a source clip, if the filter supports seeking.
