Remarks

  1. In a Windows Runtime Component project, derive a public sealed class from this interface (see example below).

  2. Use the full class name in a MediaOverlayLayer constructor.

    var propertySet = new PropertySet { ["Feather"] = true, ["Tolerance"] = 0.2f, ["Color"] = Colors.Blue };

    var compositorDefinition = new VideoCompositorDefinition( "Effects.ChromaKeyVideoCompositor", propertySet);

    var mediaOverlayLayer = new MediaOverlayLayer(compositorDefinition);

Properties

TimeIndependent

Gets a value that indicates whether the custom video effect is time independent.

Methods

Close(MediaEffectClosedReason)

Called when the video compositor should close and clean up allocated resources.

CompositeFrame(CompositeVideoFrameContext)

Called when frames are available for composition by a custom video compositor.

DiscardQueuedFrames()

Called to allow video compositor implementations optionally discard any stored state related to frames that have already been received.

SetEncodingProperties(VideoEncodingProperties, IDirect3DDevice)

Called to set the encoding properties of a custom video compositor.

SetProperties(IPropertySet)

Sets the configuration properties that were supplied when the media parser or codec was registered.
