I have had some problems at the beginning but after some help it works
(with still some problems), but --- it is very, very slow. I have used
DirectX and VB5 for this project and I think just for this task this are
not the tools of choice.

My Question now is, is somebody able to write such a DLL?

As far as I have understand it should be possible to make this with not
too much effort out of the existing tools. But I am not familar with the
language they are written with.

I know there are many guys out there that can use VB and VB5 and higher
is widely used. So such a DLL could give us more tools.

I hope there is somebody out there to help.


The best bet (and one option I've been eying for a while) is LDView.  It's
source is open and it's written generically enough that it could be completely
cross platform.
