Show in webframe

#include "ltmm.h"

C Syntax	HRESULT IltmmMediaInfo_get_StreamMediaType(pMediaInfo, MediaType)
C++ Syntax	HRESULT get_StreamMediaType(MediaType)

IltmmMediaInfo *pMediaInfo;	/* pointer to an interface */
IltmmMediaTypeDisp **MediaType;	/* pointer to a pointer */

Retrieves the media type of the current stream in the source media file.

Parameter	Description
pMediaInfo	Pointer to an IltmmMediaInfo Interface.
MediaType	Pointer to a variable to be updated with a pointer to an IltmmMediaTypeDisp interface. This interface references information about the media type of the current stream.

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

If the function succeeds, the caller must free the interface referenced by the MediaType parameter by calling the interface's Release function.

To get the number of the current stream, call IltmmMediaInfo::get_CurrentStream.

To set the current stream, call IltmmMediaInfo::put_CurrentStream. Once the current stream has been set, information about that stream can be obtained by calling any of the following functions:

IltmmMediaInfo::get_StreamDuration

IltmmMediaInfo::get_StreamMediaType

IltmmMediaInfo::get_StreamSubtype

IltmmMediaInfo::get_StreamSubtypeName

IltmmMediaInfo::get_StreamType

IltmmMediaInfo::get_StreamTypeName
