This method determines the media type associated with the current connection of the pin. This method fails if the pin is unconnected.

HRESULT ConnectionMediaType(AM_MEDIA_TYPE* pmt);

Parameters

  • pmt
    [out] Pointer to an AM_MEDIA_TYPE structure.

    If the pin is connected, the media type is returned. Otherwise, the structure is initialized to a default state in which all elements are 0, with the exception of lSampleSize, which is set to 1, and bFixedSizeSamples, which is set to TRUE.

HRESULT can be one of the following standard constants, or other values not listed.

Value Description

Remarks
