Morph Man 2000 is based on Microsoft® DirectShow® application programming interface (API).

Microsoft® DirectShow® is API for playback, transformation, and capture of a wide variety of data formats. DirectShow is the successor to Microsoft® Video for Windows® and Microsoft® ActiveMovie™, and it improves on these older technologies in significant ways. DirectShow is included in Microsoft® DirectX® Media.

Built directly into the Microsoft® Windows® family of operating systems, DirectX Media is an integral part of Windows 98 and Windows 2000, as well as Microsoft® Internet Explorer. DirectX Media components may also be automatically installed on your system by advanced multimedia games and applications written for Windows 95. (Early releases of Windows 95 may not include DirectX Media. If you think your Windows 95 operating system does not include DirectX Media, you can download it.)
