IEAttach and Display in different window ?

[StoneCut]

Hi,

I'm trying to grab the screen input from a tv/video application while it's running and pipe it into my own application. The application opens up an Internet Explorer_Server object according AutoIt3 Window Info to which I've successfully been able to connect using _IEAttach. However, from there on I'm stuck. The Internet Explorer_Server doesn't display any regular webpage but an embedded WMP (so I guess !) instead. I even tried to close that instance but nothing happened.

What I really want to do is to be able to display this video in a different window. Can anyone help ?

can't you find the source (URL) for the file and simply embed it into your application that way? I don't think you can simply redirect a streaming video to another window as you describe it.

It appears that is not possible. Whenever I try to open the source URL in a different application then connection fails. There must be some magic involved. Thanks for your answer, though.
