Heh ! Maybe to you :-P I'm new at this directshow thing !

Anyway... by the time the seeking issue came up... i'd already been messing
about with my custom transform filter and come to the conclusion that WMP9+
does whatever it likes anyway.

Hmmm... i have a multi output source filter though.. isn't the problem with
ignoring the *pCurrent ... how can you return a modified one unless you let
one of the seeks happen ? Does that just mean i can just return S_OK and do
nothing, instead of E_NOTIMPL.

Thanks,
