A little more information might be useful Smile

Are you just wanting to play the movie as part of a regular windows application, or as part of a Direct3D-based application?

Any particular version of DirectX, or just the latest-and-greatest?

DirectShow will be the component that's most likely to interest you - although it was recently moved to the Platform SDK (so you won't find it in the DirectX SDK download).

The "Playback" section from the list of samples on the above contents page is likely to be of particular interest to you.

I wanted to incorporate video display into a project I'm working on at the moment.
I needed a very simple integration with a C++ program written using DirectX 9 (Aug) and HLSL. Basicaly the graphics engine would cut out to full screen video clips loaded from files and then cut back in at set points.

I saw how DirectShow had been removed from DirectX. Is it available for download?

I remember not finding it easy to get and giving up on the idea.

You want the Platform SDK. Just go to the MSDN website and enter "Platform SDK" in the search window.
