[The feature associated with this page, Windows Media Format 11 SDK, is a legacy feature. It has been superseded by Source Reader and Sink Writer. Source Reader and Sink Writer have been optimized for Windows 10 and Windows 11. Microsoft strongly recommends that new code use Source Reader and Sink Writer instead of Windows Media Format 11 SDK, when possible. Microsoft suggests that existing code that uses the legacy APIs be rewritten to use the new APIs if possible.]

The AddMarker method adds a marker, consisting of a name and a specific time, to the header section of the ASF file.

  [in] LPCWSTR_WMSDK_TYPE_SAFE pwszMarkerName,
  [in] QWORD                   cnsMarkerTime
);

[in] pwszMarkerName

Pointer to a wide-character null-terminated string containing the marker name. Marker names are limited to 5120 wide characters.
