Well,

I'm working on an video encoder. The encoding is performed on a dedicated
hardware that can be controled via a set of DLLs provided by the manufactor
of the hardware.
I guest this could be called "user mode driver".
The movie is provided by a Camera.

The PC client uses MFC, with a set of "Callbacks" that get fired when the
card needs to do processing.

Does it make any sens?
