ILMNetMux::put_BitRateLimit

#include "ILMNetMux2.h"

C Syntax

HRESULT ILMNetMux_put_BitRateLimit(pNetMux, BitRateLimit)

C++ Syntax

HRESULT put_BitRateLimit(BitRateLimit)

 

ILMNetMux *pNetMux;

/* pointer to an interface */

long BitRateLimit;

/* bit rate to set */

Sets the forced bit rate.

Parameter

Description

pNetMux

Pointer to an ILMNetMux interface.

BitRateLimit

Value that represents the requested output bit rate, in bits per second.

Returns

S_OK

The function was successful.

<> S_OK

An error occurred. Refer to the Error Codes or the HRESULT error codes in the DirectShow documentation.

Comments

The default value of the bit rate limit is -1, which means that the multiplexer is not restricted to some bit rate. The multiplexer will output the data at a slower rate (compared to the input rate) in order to limit the bit rate, however, the average bit rate might, sometimes, go a little bit higher than the requested limit.

To get the current forced bit rate, call ILMNetMux::get_BitRateLimit.
