Send Feedback

This method changes the color key.

HRESULT SetColorKey(COLORKEY* pColorKey);

Parameters

  • pColorKey
    [out] Pointer to the COLORKEY value to be set. If successful, the actual color key value selected is copied to this parameter.

Return Values

Returns an HRESULT value that depends on the implementation.

HRESULT can be one of the following standard constants, or other values not listed.

Value Description
E_FAIL Failure.
E_POINTER Null pointer argument.
E_INVALIDARG Invalid argument.
E_NOTIMPL Method is not supported.
S_OK or NOERROR Success.

Remarks

If you change the color key by using the IOverlay::SetColorKey method, all the advise links will receive an IOverlayNotify::OnColorKeyChange callback method with the new color.

When using IOverlay on a palettized display, a filter can either install a color key (using IOverlay::SetColorKey) or install a palette (using IOverlay::SetPalette), but not both. This is because color keys in this mode require a palette to be realized that would conflict with SetPalette.

Color keys can be uninstalled by requesting a color key with the CK_NOCOLORKEY flag. Any palette installed through SetPalette can be uninstalled by calling SetPalette and passing in null parameters (that is, SetPalette(0,NULL)).

Trying to set a palette when a color key is installed returns VFW_E_PALETTE_SET.

Trying to set a color key when a palette is installed returns VFW_E_COLOR_KEY_SET.

Requirements

DirectShow applications and DirectShow filters have different include file and link library requirements.
