IVMRAspectRatioControl interface (strmif.h)

  • Article

[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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation.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.]

The IVMRAspectRatioControl interface controls whether the Video Mixing Renderer Filter 7 (VMR-7) preserves the aspect ratio of the source video. This interface is available when the VMR-7 is operating in either windowed or windowless modes. In windowless mode, the same functionality is provided by the IVMRWindowlessControl interface.
