i have to capture the video from an ecography system into my application.
I've been searching in DirectX SDK and google and they only referenced that
DirectX uses video from files. Can i capture video with DirectX? How?

My thanks in advanced

oh, one other thing:
according to the information that was given to me, the ecography system uses
s-video to output the image
users of this system can grab the video with windows movie maker

DirecShow can do video capture. It is only available from C++, not from
C#. DirectShow is now part of the Windows SDK and has not been part of
the DirectX SDK for quite some time.

Have a look at the 'classic' example AMCAP that comes with DirectShow.
DirectShow used to be part of DirectX but it is now part of platform SDK.

You should be able to capture s-video as long as you have a capture-capable
card and a corresponding driver that supports DirectShow.
