Syntax

  HRESULT SetSubpictureState(

[in] Boolean value that specifies whether the subpicture display is on; TRUE sets subpicture display on for subsequent playback.

dwFlags

[in] Bitwise OR of one or more flags from the DVD_CMD_FLAGS enumeration, specifying how to synchronize the command.

ppCmd

Return Values

Returns one of the following values.

Return code Description
S_OK Success.
VFW_E_DVD_INVALIDDOMAIN The DVD Navigator is in the First Play domain.
VFW_E_DVD_OPERATION_INHIBITED UOP control prohibits the operation.

Remarks

Subpicture streams are typically used in menus for button text and sometimes button graphics, and in video playback for subtitles, credits, or other overlaid graphics. Do not confuse subpictures with closed captions; the latter are encoded within the video stream. In general, this method is intended for controlling subpicture display over video while the DVD Navigator filter is playing video in the DVD Title domain.

This method corresponds to the second parameter of the Annex J "Sub-picture_Stream_Change" command.
