IMSVidEVR::put_SuppressEffects method (segment.h)
[The feature associated with this page, Microsoft TV Technologies, is a legacy feature. Microsoft strongly recommends that new code does not use this feature.]
The put_SuppressEffects method specifies whether the Video Control configures the system for optimal video playback.
Syntax
HRESULT put_SuppressEffects(
[in] VARIANT_BOOL bSuppress
);
Parameters
[in] bSuppress
Specifies a Boolean value. See Remarks for more information.
Return value
If the method succeeds, it returns S_OK. If it fails, it returns an error code.
Remarks
If bSuppress equals VARIANT_TRUE, the Video Control configures several system parameters during video playback:
- Disables the screen saver timeout.
- Disables Microsoft ClearType smoothing.
- Disables the drop shadow effect.
- Disables alpha-blended mouse cursors.
- Prevents the system from turning off the display (power management).
If bSuppress equals VARIANT_FALSE, the Video Control does not modify any of these system settings.
The default value for this property is VARIANT_TRUE. Set this property to VARIANT_FALSE if your application wants to control all of the system settings; for example, if you are providing a custom presenter.
