CBaseMediaFilter.Run method

[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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation.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 Run method runs the object. This method implements the IMediaFilter::Run method.

Syntax

HRESULT Run(
   REFERENCE_TIME tStart
);

Parameters

tStart

Reference time corresponding to stream time 0.

Return value

Returns S_OK.

Remarks

If the object is stopped, this method pauses the object by calling the CBaseMediaFilter::Pause method. It then sets the CBaseMediaFilter::m_State member variable to State_Running.

Stream time is calculated as the current reference time minus tStart. A media sample with a time stamp of zero should be rendered at time tStart.
