    Being naive I started using DirectShow. Run into gamut of strange terms. The first one being "graph". This is how MS "defines" it: The Filter Graph Manager builds and controls filter graphs. So now I got filter, graphs and filter graph manager. Nice. What the hell is MS definition of “graph”?

        I really like it when following MS instructions they say select the 'whatever' to run. But do not tell you where to select 'whatever'. :~

            My personal favorite comes from the SerialPort.Close()[^] method:

            The best practice for any application is to wait for some amount of time after calling the Close method before attempting to call the Open method, as the port may not be closed instantly.

            What is "some amount of time" because this has been a huge pain in my arse for way too long.

                  Probably difficult to say - there is a good chance that it depends on the hardware communications speed - if the hardware is in the process of transmitting a character then it is possible the port cannot be closed until the transmit or receive is complete. Since the speed is seriously variable (75 baud, anyone?) they probably can't say how long it will take!

                  If you get an email telling you that you can catch Swine Flu from tinned pork then just delete it. It's Spam.
