access to directx surfaces?

Post by lexvictory »

I want to do something like this: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms867211.aspx
So I was wondering if its possible to get the needed objects from PB's Screen/2DDrawing libraries?

I already have a program that uses the libs to show a graphical menu (borderless windowedscreen), however I want it to be able to play videos (I use a modified version of the directshow wrapper that's floating around) without having to first CloseScreen() and then open it again when the playback is finished
