IAMVideoCompression::get_KeyFrameRate 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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation.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 get_KeyFrameRate
method retrieves the current key-frame rate.
HRESULT get_KeyFrameRate(
[out] long *pKeyFrameRate
);
[out] pKeyFrameRate
Pointer to a variable that receives the current key-frame rate. If the value is negative, the filter will use the default key-frame rate. If the value is zero, only the first frame is a key frame.
Returns an HRESULT value.
The key-frame rate is the number of frames per key frame. For example, if the rate is 15, then a key frame occurs every 15 frames.
To determine if the filter supports this method, call the IAMVideoCompression::GetInfo method and check for the CompressionCaps_CanKeyFrame flag in the pCapabilities parameter. The GetInfo method also returns the default key-frame rate.
