IMVVMRMixerControl

IMVVMRMixerControl Interface wrapps the IVMRMixerControl and IVMRMixerControl9 interface from the VMR-7 and VMR-9 direct show filter.

Look at the DirectShow SDK documentation for more details about the VMRs and these interfaces and methods.

GetAlpha The GetAlpha method retrieves the constant alpha value that is applied to this video stream.
GetBackgroundClr Gets the current background colour of the output rectangle.
GetMixingPrefs Retrieves the mixing preferences for the stream.
GetOutputRect The GetOutputRect method retrieves the position of this stream's video rectangle within the composition rectangle.
GetProcAmpControl The GetProcAmpControl method retrieves the current image adjustment settings for the VMR-9. Image adjustment includes brightness, contrast, hue, and saturation, and is performed by the graphics device.
GetProcAmpControlRange The GetProcAmpControlRange method retrieves the range of values for an image adjustment setting, such as brightness, contrast, hue, or saturation. Image adjustment is performed by the graphics device, so the valid range depends on the graphics driver.
GetZOrder The GetZOrder method retrieves this video stream's position in the Z order.
SetAlpha The SetAlpha method sets a constant alpha value that is applied to this video stream.
SetBackgroundClr Sets the background colour on the output rectangle.
SetMixingPrefs Sets the mixing preferences for the stream.
SetOutputRect The SetOutputRect method sets the position of this stream within the composition rectangle.
SetProcAmpControl The SetProcAmpControl method sets the image adjustment for the VMR-9. Image adjustment includes brightness, contrast, hue, and saturation, and is performed by the graphics device.
SetZOrder The SetZOrder method sets this video stream's position in the Z-order; larger values are further away.

Method IMVVMRMixerControl::GetAlpha

Declaration: Function GetAlpha(StreamID As Long) As Single

The GetAlpha method retrieves the constant alpha value that is applied to this video stream.

Parameter:

StreamID Stream index.
Prototype:

Declaration: Function GetBackgroundClr As Long

Gets the current background colour on the output rectangle.

Prototype:

HRESULT GetBackgroundClr(LONG* value);


Method IMVVMRMixerControl::GetMixingPrefs

Declaration: Function GetMixingPrefs As Long

Retrieves the mixing preferences for the stream.

Prototype:

HRESULT GetMixingPrefs(LONG* value);


Method IMVVMRMixerControl::GetOutputRect

Declaration: Sub GetOutputRect(StreamID As Long, NormLeft As Single, NormTop As Single, NormRight As Single, NormBottom As Single)

The GetOutputRect method retrieves the position of this stream's video rectangle within the composition rectangle.

Parameter:

StreamID Stream index.
NormLeft Normalised left position.
NormTop Normalised top position.
