IDvdControl interface (strmif.h)
[The feature associated with this page, DirectShow, is a legacy feature. It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation. Those features have been optimized for Windows 10 and Windows 11. Microsoft strongly recommends that new code use MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation instead of DirectShow, when possible. Microsoft suggests that existing code that uses the legacy APIs be rewritten to use the new APIs if possible.]
Note This interface has been deprecated. It will continue to be supported for backward compatibility with existing applications, but new applications should use IDvdControl2.
IDvdControl interface controls the playback and search mechanisms of a DVD title that contains one or more video movies. Use this interface to control playback (set root drive, play, stop, and so forth) or use DVD-specific functionality such as menus and buttons when playing DVD-Video files.
