The Ultracapture project has been around or almost a year now, and it is still the best video surveillance software product available on the internet. It is even better than what private closed-source companies can provide as a video surveillance solution. Many other projects developed by Lennox Technology are open source, Lencap is also an open source project. This is for several reasons: 1. Video capture equipment is always being developed, and the corresponding WDM drivers are changing. Users need the flexibility to make changes to Lencap to account for the change in WDM structure. 2. There are too many closed source companies producing video surveillance software that doesn't work properly, or doesn't address the needs of a video surveillance solution. 3. There isn't enough information available on the Internet about how directshow capture works. Concepts like pins, timestamp filters, compression filters, avi mux filters and hardware enumeration techniques are difficult to understand, and Lencap source code is useful to read for the purpose of understanding these issues. 4. There are too many companies trying to propriotize hardware equipment and call it their own. For example companies place unnessesary heatsinks over the semiconductor decoder, or completely scratch off the writing on the chip to prevent others from reading it. Unethical behaviour like this works against the interests of open development, it's too capitalistic really, especially when that company didn't even write the corressponding device drivers that go with that semiconductor. Lennox Technology have recently been working on neural network decoding filters that, through the use of a video camera allow the user to program sight recognition algorythms into the program. This is one example of expanding a software product like this one, to extend the features into other genres of technology. The more recent developments have been the introduction of a VMR video player, the first VMR media player on the internet. This project facilitates the use of a n endoskeleton GUI interface that doesn't have a dialog outline, where all the buttons are blended into the video stream. This project has been one of exciting developments by Lennox Technology. Version 2.3 will be posted soon. In conclusion, many thanks to the developers who have assisted with this massive project, I am confident the software product will serve the needs of the masses in the near future.

Watermark media player I have been working on the watermark SDK sample for mixing bitmaps over a movie screen. The sample has been improved on, and is available for download under this section. The sample demonstrates how to use a Video Mixing Renderer Filter connected to a render graph to show a blended bitmap over the movie. The alpha blending values can be fully adjusted. The source is available for download as the file: water.zip. Several modifications have been made: - Watermark now functions as a media player - Support for alpha blended dialog over the movie image - Fixed compilation problems: when you modify any part of the .rc file, Visual Studio wouldn't compile and would show an error message. - Can enter and exit full screen mode.
