Hey guys, im making a video viewer and i want you to test the speed of it. Someone told me that C# is faster than VB, so i made it in C#. It shows a video with 500 frames. You can choose the framerate too
Anyway, test it and tell me if it is slow/fast, flickers much/less or giving you errors. To test it, just press the load button and it will start loading in another thread. That means you can press start right after you pressed load, if you have a slow PC you might want to wait 5 seconds before pressing start.
Thanks in advance loove;

And if someone wants to create an icon for it, ill pay 3-5 credits if i like it wahooo;

What you mean by stuck? When you press load, it starts loading in another thread so it wont get stuck. It also means that you can press the start button right after you pressed load. Just click load, then start.

ofcourse C# is better (IMO lol :P )

I think it was you that told it to me on MSN. Anyway its supposed to be a video viewer, but for now I'm just interested if it flickers or not. I haven't worked on the design or loading video files yet.

[DllImport("user32.dll")]
public static extern bool LockWindowUpdate (IntPtr hWndLock);

this prevents my form from flickering , i dunno if it works for you too...

then in the event where a new picture appears ( i believe you did that in panel_paint... :P)
panel_paint(object sender....)
{try{LockWindowUpdate(panel.Handle);}finally {LockWindowUpdate(IntPtr.Zero);}}

you need to import system.runtime.interopservices first...

I made a new usercontrol and made a timer in it. And the timer is just painting a bitmap at its tick event. But ill test it

Edit, it didn't work, i guess its because i use graphics
