    text overlay on AVI / bitmap

    Dear Colleagues,

    My task: I read AVI file and get handle to its frames using the Ray
    Mercer's outstanding tutorial regarding video in VB. Now, I try to
    write text on each such frame and then save them to an AVI file.
    Since each frame retrieved from AVI file, as I understand it, is a
    bitmap, then my task is reduced to writing text on bitmaps (I know how
    to save AVI from collection of bitmaps).
    Does anyone have such a code / link how to accomplish that?

    Thanks,

    Gilad

    Could you not put each frame in turn into a picture box, print the text into
    the same box, then pull the resulting image back into it's variable? Not
    pretty, but it might work...
