[RESOLVED] Get Image from PictureBox displaying a vedio file

[Programmation]

Hello every body

Im using Microsoft.DirectX.AudioVideoPlayback.dll to display a video in a picturebox using the following code:

Dim V As New Microsoft.DirectX.AudioVideoPlayback.Video(Application.StartupPath & "\MyMovie.WMV")
V.Owner = PictureBox1
V.Play()

So far every thing is okay. and the video is really displaing in the picturebox1 but when i try to set the PictureBox1 Image to another PictureBox Like that:

PictureBox2.Image = PictureBox1.Image

Nothing happend, I had checked the PictureBox1 Image value i found it = nothing.

All what i need is getting a capture from the picturebox while vedio playing.

Any Idea please?

Thanks for all

You haven't set the Image property so there is nothing to copy that way. But screen grabbing methods are worth trying. For example, how about this:

Dim bmp As New Bitmap(PictureBox1.Width, PictureBox1.Height)
Using g As Graphics = Graphics.FromImage(bmp)
     g.CopyFromScreen(PictureBox1.PointToScreen(Point.Empty), Point.Empty, bmp.Size)
End Using
PictureBox2.Image = bmp

If that doesn't work, check this forum's code bank for other screen capture methods.
