See the tips in the link below for writing an effective post. You have not
provided enough information to answer the question.

Possible answer:

The default renderer on XP and above is different than for earlier versions
of Windows, as described in the docs. It is the VMR7 and the VMR7 will
insist on its own allocator as stated in the docs. So, you cannot do this
with the VMR7.
