  • Article
Windows Media Encoder SDK banner art

The get_TotalBitrate method retrieves the total bit rate of the stream for the current audience.

Syntax

HRESULT get_TotalBitrate(
  long*  plBitrate
);

Parameters

plBitrate

[out]  Pointer to a long that indicates the total stream bit rate, in bits per second (bps).

Return Values

If the method succeeds, it returns S_OK. If it fails, it supports the IErrorInfo interface and returns an HRESULT error code.

Return code Number Description
E_POINTER 0x80004003 The pointer to the bit rate is NULL.

// Include libraries.
#include <windows.h>
#include <atlbase.h>
#include <comdef.h>
#include "C:\WMSDK\WMEncSDK9\include\wmencode.h"

    // Declare variables.

    // Initialize the COM library and retrieve a pointer to an IWMEncoder interface.
    hr = CoInitialize(NULL);
