Non-necroed thread on DirectDraw

People keep posting in the two old DirectDraw threads, here and here, so I figured I'd make a new one to answer one of the questions.

Since DirectX 9, or maybe 8, I'm quite sure that DirectShow uses only Direct3D to do video stuff. Maybe that only applies to the VMR9, I can't remember, but I do know that they're trying to get away from DirectDraw completely.
