Example Code

using WMEncoderLib;

try
{
// Create a WMEncoder object.
WMEncoder Encoder;
Encoder = new WMEncoder();

// Declare objects and variables.
IWMEncSourceGroupCollection SrcGrpColl;
IWMEncSourceGroup SrcGrp;
IWMEncSource SrcAud;
IWMEncVideoSource SrcVid;
IWMEncProfileCollection ProColl;
IWMEncProfile Pro;
int i;
int iAudCount;
int iVidCount;


// Create an IWMEncSourceGroupCollection object.
SrcGrpColl = Encoder.SourceGroupCollection;

// Create an IWMEncSourceGroup object.
SrcGrp = SrcGrpColl.Add("SG_1");

// Create an audio and a video source object.
SrcAud = SrcGrp.AddSource(WMENC_SOURCE_TYPE.WMENC_AUDIO);
SrcVid = (IWMEncVideoSource)SrcGrp.AddSource(WMENC_SOURCE_TYPE.WMENC_VIDEO);

// Specify the .avi source file.
SrcAud.SetInput("C:\\filename.avi", "", "");
SrcVid.SetInput("C:\\filename.avi", "", "");

// You can also use the AutoSetFileSource property to
// automatically parse a file and add the source streams
// to the source group.

//    SrcGrp.AutoSetFileSource ("C:\\filename.avi");

// Loop through the collection of system profiles to set
// a specific profile into the source group object.

ProColl = Encoder.ProfileCollection;
for (i = 0; i < ProColl.Count; i++)
{
    Pro = ProColl.Item(i);
    if (Pro.Name == "Windows Media Video 8 for Local Area Network (384 Kbps)")
    {
        SrcGrp.set_Profile(Pro);
        break;
    }
}

// Change the name of the source group.
SrcGrp.Name = "Music Only";

// Retrieve the number of audio and video streams
// in the source group.
iAudCount = SrcGrp.get_SourceCount(WMENC_SOURCE_TYPE.WMENC_AUDIO);
iVidCount = SrcGrp.get_SourceCount(WMENC_SOURCE_TYPE.WMENC_VIDEO);

// Remove the video stream. In the current release of the
// Windows Media Encoder SDK, a source group can contain
// at most only one audio, one video, and one script stream.
// You must verify that the count is not 0 before deleting
// the source stream.
if (iVidCount <> 0)
{
    SrcGrp.RemoveSource(WMENC_SOURCE_TYPE.WMENC_VIDEO, 0);
}

// Specify automatic archiving when the source group
// is active.
SrcGrp.set_AutoArchive(WMENC_ARCHIVE_TYPE.WMENC_ARCHIVE_LOCAL, WMENC_ARCHIVE_OPERATION.WMENC_ARCHIVE_START);

// Start the encoding process.
SrcGrp.PrepareToEncode(true);
}

catch (Exception e)
