IBasicVideo2 Object

 
Microsoft DirectShow 9.0

IBasicVideo2 Object

  • Note   This topic is deprecated. It applies to Visual Basic 6.0. DirectShow is not supported for Visual Basic .NET or C#.

The IBasicVideo2 object supports the video component of the filter graph. To use this object, declare a variable of type IBasicVideo2 and set it equal to the FilgraphManager object:

Dim mGraph As New FilgraphManager
Dim iVideo As IBasicVideo2
Set iVideo = mGraph

If the graph does not have a connected video renderer, all IBasicVideo2 properties and methods return run-time error 521. Properties set on a video renderer generally persist between successive connections and disconnections.

The IBasicVideo2 object manipulates the following rectangles associated with the video image:

  • The source rectangle is the portion of the original image that gets displayed.
  • The destination rectangle is the portion of the video window the receives the source rectangle.
  • The video rectangle is the original video image.

In other words, the video renderer crops the image to the source rectangle, and then stretches or shrinks the cropped image to the destination rectangle.

Requirements

Include a reference in your project to "ActiveMovie control type library" (Quartz.dll).
