Remarks

The REFERENCE_TIME data type is a 64-bit integer.

Reference times are usually measured from one of the following baselines:

• An absolute clock time. In this case, the baseline will depend on the implementation of the clock. For more information, see Reference Clocks.
• Relative to the start of playback.

For more information about reference times, see Time and Clocks in DirectShow.
