CBaseControlWindow.IsAutoShowEnabled method
[The feature associated with this page, DirectShow, is a legacy feature. It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation. Those features have been optimized for Windows 10 and Windows 11. Microsoft strongly recommends that new code use MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation instead of DirectShow, when possible. Microsoft suggests that existing code that uses the legacy APIs be rewritten to use the new APIs if possible.]
The IsAutoShowEnabled method retrieves information about whether the video window automatically appears when the rendering filter pauses or runs.
Syntax
BOOL IsAutoShowEnabled();
Parameters
This method has no parameters.
Return value
Returns TRUE if the m_bAutoShow member is set to 1 or FALSE if it is set to 0.
Remarks
If the m_bAutoShow member is set to 1 on a video window that is hidden, the window becomes visible when the filter pauses or runs. If this member is set to 0, the window will appear only if you use the CBaseControlWindow::put_Visible or CBaseControlWindow::put_WindowState member function with the appropriate parameters.
This member function retrieves the m_bAutoShow member setting and has the same result as using the IVideoWindow::get_AutoShow method.
