thank you both :)) Well, I _only_ have dev-api-4 streams (because I tested
the postproc stuff only with newly created streams) and I have no problems

Note however that it could well be that there's something wrong in the
dshow code. I just copied some of Nic's code and adopted it to current cvs
code but I did not really look over the code again in order to find out if
all I did was really correct. I just tested and it worked fine (which was
a great surprise because I'm not used to the fact that my code changes
work right out of the box ;-)), so I just happily committed all the stuff
without further checking - maybe that was a mistake ;-))

bye,
Michael
