IDvdControl2::Stop method (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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation.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 Stop method stops playback of a title or menu by moving the DVD Navigator into the DVD Stop domain.

Syntax

HRESULT Stop();

Return value

Returns one of the following values.

Return code Description
S_OK

Remarks

Calling this method puts the DVD Navigator into the Stop domain, but the DVD filter graph as a whole remains in a running state, ready to play at any time. From the Stop, domain the user can display a menu or initiate playback directly through any "Play" method.
