);

Parameters

Optional pointer to a PROPVARIANT that contains additional information related to the marker. The meaning of this value depends on the marker type. This parameter can be NULL.

[in] pvarContextValue

Optional pointer to a PROPVARIANT that is attached to the MEStreamSinkMarker event. Call IMFMediaEvent::GetValue to get this value from the event. The caller can use this information for any purpose. This parameter can be NULL.
