Members

dwFlags

Applicable flags. The following value is defined: ICCOMPRESSFRAMES_PADDING. If this value is used, padding is used with the frame.

lpbiOutput

Pointer to a BITMAPINFOHEADER structure containing the output format.

lOutput

Reserved; do not use.

lpbiInput

Pointer to a BITMAPINFOHEADER structure containing the input format.

lInput

Reserved; do not use.

lStartFrame

Number of the first frame to compress.

lFrameCount

Number of frames to compress.

lQuality

Quality setting.

lDataRate

Maximum data rate, in bytes per second.

lKeyRate

Maximum number of frames between consecutive key frames.

dwRate

Compression rate in an integer format. To obtain the rate in frames per second, divide this value by the value in dwScale.

dwScale

Value used to scale dwRate to frames per second.

dwOverheadPerFrame

Reserved; do not use.

dwReserved2

Reserved; do not use.

GetData

Reserved; do not use.

PutData

Reserved; do not use.
