Hey guys, im almost done learning the basics of win32, and just realised, that API's, ie win32 dx, etc, are all premade, and are just reused in the case of windows or games programming, im fine with that. But now, after thinking i wanted to make a media player, it worked out , however used someones codec. This also goes for movie playing etc. Now i want to ask, where can i get knowledge to write codecs, and what language are they written in.
