IVMRFilterConfig::SetRenderingMode

The SetRenderingMode method sets the rendering mode used by the VMR.

Syntax

HRESULT SetRenderingMode(
  DWORD  Mode
);

Parameters

Mode

[in]  Specifies the rendering mode as a VMRMode value.

Return Values

If the method succeeds, it returns S_OK. If it fails, it returns an error code.

Error Code Description
E_INVALIDARG An invalid rendering mode was specified.
VFW_E_WRONG_STATE The mode cannot be changed for some reason. See Remarks.

Remarks

The VMR is in VMRMode_Windowed by default. Use this method only if you are putting the VMR into VMRMode_Windowless or VMRMode_Renderless mode. You cannot change the mode after any pin has been connected and you cannot change the mode from windowless or renderless back to windowed, even before any pins are connected. Therefore, specifying VMRMode_Windowed for Mode has no effect under any circumstances.
