What kind of packets is your fileformat plugin producing,
or
is it producing packets at all?

Normally video-type renderers work like this: the
fileformat
produces packets where the timestamps roughly correspond
to frame times. The client engine passes these packets to
the
renderer at preroll milliseconds before the playback time.
The renderer then decodes these packets to produce frames.
The client engine then calls OnTimeSync() to let the
renderer
know the master timeline. At the appropriate time, the
renderer calls IHXSite::ForceRedraw() and the client engine
will call back with IHXSiteUser::HandleEvent() with a
surface
update event. The renderer gets the IHXVideoSurface or
IHXVideoSurface2 from the event and blts the frame to
the video surface.
