I run ffmpeg like this: System.Diagnostics.Process p = new System.Diagnostics.Process(); p.StartInfo = new System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo(ffmpegPath, myParams); p.Start(); p.WaitForExit(); ... but the problem is that the console with ffmpeg pops up and disappears right away, so I can't get any feedback. I don't even know if the process ran correctly. So how can I either: Tell the console to stay opened Retrieve in the C# what the console displayed Lucas Jones What you need to do is capture the Standard Output stream: p.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true; p.StartInfo.UseShellExecute =

How can I use System.Diagnostics.PerformanceCounter to track the memory and CPU usage for a process? For per process data: Process p = /*get the desired process here*/; PerformanceCounter ramCounter = new PerformanceCounter("Process", "Working Set", p.ProcessName); PerformanceCounter cpuCounter = new PerformanceCounter("Process", "% Processor Time", p.ProcessName); while (true) { Thread.Sleep(500); double ram = ramCounter.NextValue(); double cpu = cpuCounter.NextValue(); Console.WriteLine("RAM: "+(ram/1024/1024)+" MB; CPU: "+(cpu)+" %"); } Performance counter also has other counters than

We have an IIS WCF service that launches another process (app.exe) as a different user. I have complete control over both applications (and this is a dev environment for now). The IIS app pool runs as me, a domain user (DOMAIN\nirvin), who is also a local administrator on the box. The second process is supposed to run as a local user (svc-low). I am using System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(ProcessStartInfo) to launch the process. The process launches successfully - I know because there are no exceptions thrown, and I get a process ID. But the process dies immediately, and I get an error in the

How can I start a process on a remote computer in c#, say computer name = "someComputer", using System.Diagnostics.Process class? I created a small console app on that remote computer that just writes "Hello world" to a txt file, and I would like to call it remotely. Console app path: c:\MyAppFolder\MyApp.exe Currently I have this: ProcessStartInfo startInfo = new ProcessStartInfo(string.Format(@"\\{0}\{1}", someComputer, somePath); startInfo.UserName = "MyUserName"; SecureString sec = new SecureString(); string pwd = "MyPassword"; foreach (char item in pwd) { sec.AppendChar(item); } sec
