Vista DWM Hacking – Capture and Stream D3D/WPF Windows Real-Time

18 Kicks

submitted by jdollah(345) 3 years, 3 months ago

This prototype project uses undocumented Vista DWM calls to get reference to a Direct3D surface the Vista DWM uses to paint windows. The D3D surface is then able to be rendered in a WPF application like a "VisualBrush". Because this is done in the GPU, it is very efficient. The sample application will also let you stream a high quality, high fps capture of your video to Silverlight or Windows Media Player.

I have worked on several projects with this developer in the past and have always had amazing success with his ideas and frameworks. I highly recommend anything this guy pumps out, although you shouldn't take my word for it, see for yourself and your sure to be dazzled by his brilliance!

Cool. Just be sure not to use this for anything serious; using undocumented APIs results in code that doesn't upgrade well over time and may have unknown side-effects. Those APIs are left undocumented for a reason.
