IMPEG2PIDMap::MapPID method

Article
12/05/2018

The MapPID method maps one or more PIDs to the pin.

Syntax

HRESULT MapPID(
  ULONG                culPID,
  ULONG                *pulPID,
  MEDIA_SAMPLE_CONTENT MediaSampleContent
);

Parameters

culPID

The number of elements in the pulPID array.

pulPID

Pointer to an array of size culPID, allocated by the caller. Each element in the array contains a PID to be mapped.

MediaSampleContent

Variable of type MEDIA_SAMPLE_CONTENT that specifies the contents of the stream.

Return value

Returns S_OK if successful. If the method fails, it returns an HRESULT error code.

Remarks

There may be no more than 255 distinct PIDs mapped at any given time. This includes the PIDs that the Demux maps internally for its own use; this number varies depending on the transport stream. This limitation should not present a problem in practice, because applications will typically map no more than a dozen PIDs on any given transport stream.
