I am trying to add a video input pin to the avssamp based driver.

Created custom guid and added required registry keys into inf file:
HKLM,System\CurrentControlSet\Control\MediaCategories\%VideoInPinGUID%
HKLM,System\CurrentControlSet\Control\MediaCategories\%VideoInPinGUID
%,Name,,%VideoInPinName%
VideoInPinName is "Video In"

After installing the filter and checkinf it in the GraphEdit, I see
that there is no input pin in the tree view of the add filter dialog,
but when I add the filter to the graph it shows me that there is an
input pin named "Input1".

Can somebody explain me what I am doing wrong?

Did you set the name in the KSPIN_DESCRIPTOR_EX? Did you set
InstancesNecessary? Do you have a category set? (You may not want one.)

Brief explanation of what I am trying to:
A virtual video capture driver, that streams data from existing direct
show filter.

What is the point? If you have a DirectShow source filter that produces
frames, just register it in CLSID_VideoInputDeviceCategory and it will be
seen as a capture device.

Thank you Tim,

I have to clear avssamp provided inf file in order to get it right.
Interesting suggestion about CLSID_VideoInputDeviceCategory.
My filter is push source with audio and video output pins.

How can I register it under CLSID_VideoInputDeviceCategory category?
