Constants

 
MFP_EVENT_TYPE_PLAY
Value: 0
Playback has started. This event is sent when the IMFPMediaPlayer::Play method completes.
MFP_EVENT_TYPE_PAUSE
Value: 1

MFP_EVENT_TYPE_STOP
Value: 2
Playback has stopped. This event is sent when the IMFPMediaPlayer::Stop method completes.
MFP_EVENT_TYPE_POSITION_SET
Value: 3
The MFPlay player object has seeked to a new playback position. This event is sent when the IMFPMediaPlayer::SetPosition method completes.
MFP_EVENT_TYPE_RATE_SET
Value: 4
The playback rate has changed. This event is sent when the IMFPMediaPlayer::SetRate method completes.
MFP_EVENT_TYPE_MEDIAITEM_CREATED
Value: 5
A new media item was created. This event is sent when the IMFPMediaPlayer::CreateMediaItemFromURL or CreateMediaItemFromObject method completes.
MFP_EVENT_TYPE_MEDIAITEM_SET

Value: 8
The current media item was cleared. This event is sent when the IMFPMediaPlayer::ClearMediaItem method completes.
MFP_EVENT_TYPE_MF
Value: 9
A pipeline object sent an event. The player object forwards certain pipeline events to the application. For more information, see MFP_MF_EVENT.
MFP_EVENT_TYPE_ERROR
Value: 10
A playback error has occurred.
MFP_EVENT_TYPE_PLAYBACK_ENDED
Value: 11
Playback has ended. The player object sends this event when playback reaches the end of the media file.
MFP_EVENT_TYPE_ACQUIRE_USER_CREDENTIAL
Value: 12

Remarks

For each event type, the IMFPMediaPlayerCallback::OnMediaPlayerEvent callback receives a pointer to a data structure. The first part of the data structure is always an MFP_EVENT_HEADER structure. The following table lists the data structure for each event type.

In your implementation of OnMediaPlayerEvent, you must cast the pEventHeader parameter to the correct structure type. A set of macros is defined for this purpose. These macros check the value of the event type and return NULL if there is a mismatch; otherwise they return a pointer to the correct structure type.
