DirectShow (Stream.h) for Windows 10 Development

Question

I just noticed that streams.h is missing, while I was compiling DSVideoLib on my machine. A quick research pointed me to the Windows SDK. https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd407279(v=vs.85).aspx Well after installing the windows sdk again, I still cannot find those files and folders in my windows sdk folder.

Does anybody have an idea where to get the DirectShow library on windows 10?

Answer 1

Streams.h and and other BaseClasses directory files can be found in Windows SDK 7.1, in \Samples\multimedia\directshow\baseclasses. This also looks like a good snapshot to grab.

See also (actually proves that taken out from Windows SDK 8.0, the code in question was never put back later):

There is nothing bad in taking "old" DirectShow sample/base code because there has been so little changes over last 10+ years...
