1. Examples is way too short (and plus is redundant since there is only one example). Perhaps the file should be linked to in either the external links or one of the sections like Design Model.
2. Remove personal pronouns referring to readers, such as in “if you want to do more custom things like”, “The way DirectShow works usually is that you create a filter graph
3. Add retrieval dates for all of the external links under the references
4. Is addon a word? Perhaps add-on?
5. “Mostly its only purpose at the time was to serve as a plugin” Mostly its only purpose? Either it is the only purpose, or it was mostly.
6. “Eventually, around version 5 of DirectX,” The article never mentioned DirectX before, so I have no idea whether or not this means around the time the 5th version of Direct X was created for ActiveMovie or something separate
7. Not necessary, but perhaps it would be helpful to convert the list under advantages to prose.
8. Some inline citations (footnotes) occur after the period/comma, others before. I would suggest changing all of them to right after the end of the word/period/comma (like is done on WP:FOOTNOTE).
9. “Unfortunately it is difficult to modify a graph that is already running.” Unfortunately? I don’t think such words occur regularly in Wikipedia (then again I could be wrong), sounds like you’re taking the WP:POV of DirectShow.
10. Could a year be provided for the start of the history section?
