I came across a competitor product to VisualSVN a few days back. It provides an installer and graphical wrapper around a standard svn server, plus (that's why I'm looking for it) repository backup and monitoring functions.

I wrote a program to play MPEG video on a window (of course, DirectShow will open its own window as the sub-window of that window). On Windows Vista and 7, the program works fine. But on XP, the video is only visible when I set the WS_CLIPCHILDREN style on the outer window (i.e. not the DirectShow one). Is this a bug in XP or some model ...
