src Attribute
[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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation.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.]
Note
[Deprecated. This API may be removed from future releases of Windows.]
The src attribute specifies the path name of a media file. The file can be any type supported by DirectShow, or a still image. The supported formats for still images are bitmap, device-independent bitmap, GIF, and JPEG.
Possible Values
Must be a string that specifies a path name.
