I have written a source filter which handles a custom
file type for AVI.
This source filter is loaded when playing the AVI.

Is it possible to do so also for ASF?

If you mean you wrote a custom file handler for the AVIFile
library, then the concept does not apply to ASF.

You need to understand that AVIFile is a 3-step pipeline:

1. source: AVI/WAV parser based on MMIO or unknown when
using a custom handler
2. handler: stock AVI/WAV handler or custom handler
3. reader: AVIFile

ASF is a format and the WMF runtime library supports it and
MP3 and corresponds only to level 1, while you are looking
at something at level 2. But levels 2 and 3 of AVIFile have
been replaced in most applications by DirectShow and
MediaFoundation.

What are you trying to achieve? Are you actually sourcing a
custom file type or just reading an AVI from a custom
storage? How is the data read by AVIFile consumed?

What I meant that I used the techinque described in the following link
to implement a custom source filter.

When I open an AVI file , which has my FOURCC signature on it , my
source filter is loaded.
