Adding Script Commands to Windows Media Video

This example shows how to access the ltmmWMScript object, using it to create script commands when converting to WMV video.

  1. Set the convert source, target and target format as follows:

    C API
    IltmmConvert_put_SourceFile(pConvert, L"source.avi"); 
    IltmmConvert_put_TargetFile(pConvert, L"target.wmv"); 
    IltmmConvert_put_TargetFormat(pConvert, ltmmConvert_TargetFormat_WMV_Mux); 
    C++
    pConvert->put_SourceFile(L"source.avi"); 
    pConvert->put_TargetFile(L"target.wmv"); 
    pConvert->put_TargetFormat(ltmmConvert_TargetFormat_WMV_Mux); 

  2. Call the convert object to retrieve the target filter as follows:

    C API
    IUnknown *pUnk; 
    IltmmConvert_GetSubObject(pConvert, ltmmConvert_Object_TargetFilter, &pUnk); 
    C++
    IUnknown *pUnk; 
    pConvert->GetSubObject(ltmmConvert_Object_TargetFilter, &pUnk); 

  3. Retrieve the ltmmWMScript interface as follows:

    C API
    IltmmWMScript *pWMScript; 
    IUnknown_QueryInterface(pUnk, &IID_IltmmWMScript, (void**)&pWMScript); 
    IUnknown_Release(pUnk); 
    C++
    IltmmWMScript *pWMScript; 
    pUnk->QueryInterface(&IID_IltmmWMScript, (void**)&pWMScript); 
    pUnk->Release(); 

  4. Add a header script at 5.0 seconds as follows:

    C API
    IltmmWMScript_AddHeaderScript(pWMScript, L"caption", L"Test Caption", 5.0); 
    C++
    pWMScript->AddHeaderScript(L"caption", L"Test Caption", 5.0); 

  5. Clean up the ltmmWMScript object as follows:

    C API
    IUnknown_Release(pWMScript); 
    C++
    pWMScript->Release(); 

  6. Start the conversion as follows:

    C API
    IltmmConvert_StartConvert(pConvert) 
    C++
    pConvert->StartConvert();
