Unicode uses 2 bytes for one character. "Byte-order Mark" MSDN article could be helpful for you.

Thank you very much Geert :) It works wonderfully!

assume your image is in m_bmp, and pDC is a window DC. CDC memDC = CreateCompatibleDC(pDC); CBitmap *pOldMemBmp = memDC.SelectObject(&m_bmp); pDC->StretchBlt(outX, outY, bmpWidth / 2, bmpHeight / 2, &memDC, 0, 0, bmpWidth, bmpHeight, SRCCOPY); memDC.SelectObject(pOldMemBmp); -- if you don't know bmpWidth and bmpHeight : BITMAP bm; m_bmp.GetObject(sizeof(BITMAP), &bm); bmpWidth = bm.bmWidth; bmpHeight = bm.bmHeight; -c

If you are using SetTimer() with a NULL 3rd argument you are relying on the message queue sending you the lowest priority message going to tell you about the timer. Not good. Even worse is if you are busy then no messages are being processed, hence your timer will never be triggered. This is why when you click the menu, you caused some processing of the message queue to happen, you get your timer event. Solution 1: Pass a callback function for parameter 3. This will be called much more reliably. Solution 2: Go multi threaded (beyond the scope of me typing just before going home). There are various articles on codeproject or you could take a look at some of the Platform SDK samples. I've used both 1 and 2 depending on the situtation (and programming model - Win16 only solution 1 is available). Cheers Stephen Kellett

If you could really give me the example code, I really appreciate it. Btw, it is not a win32 app, is it? Because I am really new at this DirectX stuff, and I already have my project half done in an MFC dialog-based app. All I need to do now is the ability to play a movie clip file (non-streaming) using DirectShow. Once again, thanks a lot.
