IAMCameraControl::Set method (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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation.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.]
The Set method sets a specified property on the camera.
Syntax
HRESULT Set(
[in] long Property,
[in] long lValue,
[in] long Flags
);
Parameters
[in] Property
Specifies the property to set, as a value from the CameraControlProperty enumeration.
[in] lValue
Specifies the new value of the property.
[in] Flags
Specifies the desired control setting, as a member of the CameraControlFlags enumeration.
Return value
If this method succeeds, it returns S_OK. Otherwise, it returns an HRESULT error code.
Remarks
If the Flags parameter is CameraControl_Flags_Auto, the method ignores the lValue parameter, as long as it's between the minimum and maximum values of the property.
