IAMTimelineSrc::SetStreamNumber method

[The feature associated with this page, DirectShow, is a legacy feature. It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation. Those features have been optimized for Windows 10 and Windows 11. Microsoft strongly recommends that new code use MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation instead of DirectShow, when possible. Microsoft suggests that existing code that uses the legacy APIs be rewritten to use the new APIs if possible.]

Note

[Deprecated. This API may be removed from future releases of Windows.]

 

The SetStreamNumber method specifies which stream to read from the source file associated with this source object.

Syntax

HRESULT SetStreamNumber(
   long Val
);

Parameters

Val

The stream number, from the set of streams matching the media type of the parent group.

Return value

If this method succeeds, it returns S_OK. Otherwise, it returns an HRESULT error code.

Remarks

The Val parameter specifies a stream number from the set of streams that matches the parent group's media type, not from the entire set of streams in the source file. For example, For example, suppose that a file contains two video streams and two audio streams. If the source object is inside a video group, setting Val to 0 selects the first video stream. The caller is responsible for specifying a valid stream number.

The stream number defaults to zero.
