IMediaSample::IsDiscontinuity

Determines if there is discontinuity in the data stream.

HRESULT IsDiscontinuity(void);

Return Values

Returns S_OK if the sample is a discontinuous sample, or S_FALSE if not; otherwise, returns an HRESULT error value.

Remarks

Discontinuity occurs when a source filter seeks to a different place in the stream or when a filter drops samples for quality control.

While calling SetDiscontinuity with a value of TRUE (1) sets the discontinuity property, calling IsDiscontinuity on a discontinuous sample returns S_OK (0).
