IAMTimelineTrans::SetCutsOnly 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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation.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 SetCutsOnly method specifies whether the transition is rendered as a cut. If so, the transition occurs instantly at the cut point. If a transition takes a long time to render, you might want to preview it as a cut to speed preview.

Syntax

HRESULT SetCutsOnly(
   BOOL Val
);

Parameters

Val

Specifies whether to render the transition as a cut. If TRUE, the transition is rendered as an instantaneous cut. If FALSE, the transition renders over its normal duration.

Return value

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

Remarks

Rendering a transition as a cut is not compatible with swapping the inputs. (See IAMTimelineTrans::SetSwapInputs.) If you call SetCutsOnly with a value of TRUE, it temporarily overrides the SetSwapInputs setting. The cuts-only setting is intended for preview, however, so this limitation does not affect file output—just remember to call SetCutsOnly with the value FALSE before writing the file.

Note

The header file Qedit.h is not compatible with Direct3D headers later than version 7.

 

Note

To obtain Qedit.h, download the Microsoft Windows SDK Update for Windows Vista and .NET Framework 3.0. Qedit.h is not available in the Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows 7 and .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1.
