Parameter |
Description |
pTargetDevice |
Pointer to an IltmmTargetDevice Interface. |
pVal |
Pointer to a variable that receives a string containing the device’s name. |
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 returned string can be used to uniquely identify a device. A program can save this value to persistent storage and use it later with the IltmmTargetDevices::Find function to restore the device selection.
If the method succeeds, the caller must free the returned BSTR by calling the SysFreeString function.
