    Hi,

    I'm new to this SDK so please bear with me and please help.

    I'm trying to make a program that uses the Windows Media Encoder SDK 9 to
    convert MPG (2) video to WMV with a configurable quality. I have been
    working with this snippit of code but it only returns Windows Media 8 and
    related codecs. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong? Also, any links to more
    information and especially samples for configuration the output for this
    transformation.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------
    WMEncoderLib.WMEncoder encoder = new WMEncoderLib.WMEncoder();

    IWMEncProfileCollection ProColl = encoder.ProfileCollection;
    IWMEncProfile Pro;
    for (int i = 0; i < ProColl.Count; i++)
    {
       Pro = ProColl.Item(i);
       System.Diagnostics.Trace.WriteLine(Pro.Name);
       // ...
    }
    -------------------------------------------------------------------

    This is the output of that loop.

    Thanks in advance,
    Michael
