IVPBaseConfig::SetVideoPortID method (vpconfig.h)
[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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation.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 SetVideoPortID method specifies the ID of the hardware video port to use.
Syntax
HRESULT SetVideoPortID(
[in] DWORD dwVideoPortID
);
Parameters
[in] dwVideoPortID
Specifies the video port ID. This value corresponds to the dwVideoPortID member of the DDVIDEOPORTDESC structure, which is documented in the Windows DDK.
Return value
Returns an HRESULT value.
Remarks
This method sets the DirectDraw video port ID on the mini driver to enable it to communicate with the video port directly.
Include Dvp.h and Vptype.h before Vpconfig.h.
