ICM_COMPRESS_END message

  • Article

The ICM_COMPRESS_END message notifies a video compression driver to end compression and free resources allocated for compression. You can send this message explicitly or by using the ICCompressEnd macro.

ICM_COMPRESS_END 
wParam = 0; 
lParam = 0;

Return Value

Returns ICERR_OK if successful or an error otherwise.

Remarks

VCM saves the settings of the most recent ICM_COMPRESS_BEGIN message. ICM_COMPRESS_BEGIN and ICM_COMPRESS_END do not nest. If your driver receives ICM_COMPRESS_BEGIN before compression is stopped with ICM_COMPRESS_END, it should restart compression with new parameters.
