IAMMediaContent interface (qnetwork.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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation.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 IAMMediaContent interface retrieves metadata from a stream. Applications can use this interface to retrieve information encoded into a stream, such as the author, title, and copyright. This interface is exposed by the AVI Splitter filter and the MPEG-1 Stream Splitter filter.

Depending on the stream type, a filter might support a subset of the methods on this interface. For example, the AVI Splitter retrieves the copyright, author name, and title from INFO chunks in the AVI file. The remaining methods return E_NOTIMPL.

Note  Windows Media Player does not use this interface to display metadata.

To define the interface identifier, include the header file Initguid.h before Qnetwork.h, but after Dshow.h and other header files:

#include <dshow.h>
#include <initguid.h>
#include <qnetwork.h>
Note  Make sure that Initguid.h is included only once in your project. Otherwise, you will receive linker errors for duplicate GUID values.
