Nicholas,

You can drive the overall clock yourself and capture each clocked frame to a video. I think we have a sample that does this (at least we used to).

Obviously, this will not work for audio.

This is pretty interesting. I have a question that is somewhat related to animation.

From what I understand, WPF will drop frames in order to always sync with the media timer (for example, if sound is playing, or something like that, it will drop animation frames in order to keep synced).

Is there a way to tell WPF NOT to do that? The case I am thinking of is where I want to render a scene in WPF, for example (using primitives and the like, or whatever I want). However, I want to render it in such a way where I capture the output and put it into video (where I want to make sure I render each frame correctly, no matter how long it takes, and where the synchronization with the media is a non issue at this point).

This way, I could render my scenes (and we are talking about text/shape overlays, nothing overly complex), and have them rendered frame by frame (if that is what I am seeking) completely, without anything being dropped.

Hopefully, that makes some sense, and is not completely off topic. =)
