ICDecompressExEnd macro (vfw.h)

Article
02/22/2024

The ICDecompressExEnd macro notifies a video decompression driver to end decompression and free resources allocated for decompression. You can use this macro or explicitly call the ICM_DECOMPRESSEX_END message.

Syntax

void ICDecompressExEnd(
   hic
);

Parameters

hic

Handle to a decompressor.

Return value

None

Remarks

The driver frees any resources allocated for the ICM_DECOMPRESSEX_BEGIN message.

ICM_DECOMPRESSEX_BEGIN and ICM_DECOMPRESSEX_END do not nest. If your driver receives ICM_DECOMPRESSEX_BEGIN before decompression is stopped with ICM_DECOMPRESSEX_END, it should restart decompression with new parameters.
