I'm trying to make a program like davideo for reencoding divx/xvid files to windows media format. Basicaly the idea is that it reads the info from the file out of the summary field of the avi file. It uses this information to set the best quality settings for the file, depending on what file size and audio quality you select.
I got most of it figured out, but I cannot find anything that works with vb.net to get the info out of the summary field.
I would like to get the duration and the resolution of the video out of this to use with the calculations.

Any idea's?

(I found some stuff for vb6, but they wont convert properly)

forget it.
Already done in Delphi and it's working.
