Hi !!
I want to create a video child device using video miniport in
Windows vista, so I 'm writting non pnp kernel mode driver which
creates a FDO and attaches the fdo to PDO (e.g \\Device\\Video3)
using IoAttachDeviceToDeviceStack.

Now How can i create child device for this video device ?



Thanks in Advance
Mangesh

1) You need to be a pnp driver
2) you need to install yourself as an upper filter driver for the
particular video card. This way you will not have to bind to a specific
device name, rather it will be given to you
3) use KMDF to write the bus driver, it is not that simple to do (and it
appears that you have not written WDM drivers before as evidenced by trying
to add a non pnp device to a pnp stack)

The XPDM video-stack is not that easy to reconfigure.
If you have a non PnP device, then,
simply call VideoPortInitialize in DriverEntry, and, have videoprt.sys
to create the device for you, either on the spot, or through some
out-of-band simulation of PnP.
