Windows 7 - Directshow Source Filter does not get Recognize....

Asked By Anirudh Mathur on 19-Apr-12 06:59 AM
Hi,
 I have implemented a directshow source filter, it is recognized by almost all application. But when I tried Cisco Jabber
this filter was not loaded. This filter works on machines that have no webcam installed, it has mechanism by which it takes webcam data from  client machine which has actual webcam installed.  

I have checked the graphedit and found that the filter is registered under CLSID_VideoInputDeviceCategory.

Please help me understand that is it possible that some applications requires actual webcam installed.  Do I have to
necessarily write a source driver.

The problem is some apps recognizes the filter and some apps do not.
