If vmr9.h is part of directshow, directshow was moved to the platform SDK, I think after the Feb2005 DX SDK.

No, it means you need to download and install DirectShow from the platform SDK. The header by itself is useless, it probably includes other headers, and the headers themselves forward declare stuff the compiler will then need to find in the lib files which you would also need. So, instead of trying to hack it together, you should just bite the bullet and download the PSDK with DirectShow.

So I downloaded: dx90_sdkextra_directshow.exe

did not include the right files.. wrong download?

Well, that sure looks like it should include directshow. Do you need to pass a switch to the installer for it to install directshow as well ?

only two folders:

VB Samples
DVDBoilerplate

Wong download. That file is just sample files for an older version of the DirectX SDK that included DirectShow.

You can download the Microsoft Platform SDK (R2) and choose custom install and select only DirectShow components.
