IWMWriterFileSink2::Start method

The Start method starts recording at the specified time.

Syntax

HRESULT Start(
  QWORD cnsStartTime
);

Parameters

cnsStartTime

Start time in 100-nanosecond units.

Return value

The method returns an HRESULT. Possible values include, but are not limited to, those in the following table.

Return code Description
S_OK
The method succeeded.
NS_E_INVALID_REQUEST
The requested start time precedes the last stop time.
E_OUTOFMEMORY
Not enough memory to complete the task.

Remarks

It is not necessary to call this method unless the sink has been stopped. The sink automatically starts (at time 0) when it is added to the writer by using IWMWriterAdvanced::AddSink.

Because of interleaving of streams with slightly different time stamps at any particular point in the file, the actual start time might not be exactly as specified in cnsStartTime. To increase the precision, call IWMWriterFileSink3::SetControlStream.
