CBaseRenderer.OnReceiveFirstSample method

[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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation.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 OnReceiveFirstSample method is called when the filter receives a sample while paused.

Syntax

virtual void OnReceiveFirstSample(
   IMediaSample *pMediaSample
);

Parameters

pMediaSample

Pointer to the sample's IMediaSample interface.

Return value

This method does not return a value.

Remarks

The CBaseRenderer::Receive method calls this method. It does nothing in the base class, but the derived class can override it. This method is intended primarily for video renderers. When a video renderer is paused, it typically displays the first sample as a still image.

Seeking the graph while paused also causes this method to be called.
