CEnumMediaTypes class

[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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation.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.]

cenummediatypes class hierarchy

The CEnumMediaTypes class implements an enumerator for preferred media types.

This class implements the IEnumMediaTypes interface. It calls the following CBasePin methods:

Whenever a pin alters its list of preferred media types, the pin increments the media-type version number. When this happens, the enumerator object is no longer synchronized with the pin, and the class methods return VFW_E_ENUM_OUT_OF_SYNC. Call the CEnumMediaTypes::Reset method to resynchronize the enumerator.
