ICDecompressEx
The ICDecompressEx function decompresses a single video frame.
DWORD ICDecompressEx(
HIC hic,
DWORD dwFlags,
LPBITMAPINFOHEADER lpbiSrc,
LPVOID lpSrc,
int xSrc,
int ySrc,
int dxSrc,
int dySrc,
LPBITMAPINFOHEADER lpbiDst,
LPVOID lpDst,
int xDst,
int yDst,
int dxDst,
int dyDst
);
Parameters
hic
Handle to the decompressor.
dwFlags
Decompression flags. The following values are defined.
Value | Meaning |
ICDECOMPRESS_HURRYUP | Tries to decompress at a faster rate. When an application uses this flag, the driver should buffer the decompressed data but not draw the image. |
ICDECOMPRESS_NOTKEYFRAME | Current frame is not a key frame. |
ICDECOMPRESS_NULLFRAME | Current frame does not contain data and the decompressed image should be left the same. |
ICDECOMPRESS_PREROLL | Current frame precedes the point in the movie where playback starts and, therefore, will not be drawn. |
ICDECOMPRESS_UPDATE | Screen is being updated or refreshed. |
lpbiSrc
Pointer to a BITMAPINFOHEADER structure containing the format of the compressed data.
lpSrc
Pointer to the input data.
xSrc
The x-coordinate of the source rectangle for the DIB specified by lpbiSrc.
ySrc
The y-coordinate of the source rectangle for the DIB specified by lpbiSrc.
dxSrc
Width of the source rectangle.
dySrc
Height of the source rectangle.
lpbiDst
Pointer to a BITMAPINFOHEADER structure containing the output format.
lpDst
Pointer to a buffer that is large enough to contain the decompressed data.
xDst
The x-coordinate of the destination rectangle for the DIB specified by lpbiDst.
yDst
The y-coordinate of the destination rectangle for the DIB specified by lpbiDst.
dxDst
Width of the destination rectangle.
dyDst
Height of the destination rectangle.
Return Values
Returns ICERR_OK if successful or an error otherwise.
Remarks
Typically, applications use the ICDECOMPRESS_PREROLL flag to seek to a key frame in a compressed stream. The flag is sent with the key frame and with subsequent frames required to decompress the desired frame.
Requirements
