Send Feedback

This structure describes a media sample type.

typedef struct  _MediaType{GUID majortype;GUID subtype;BOOL bFixedSizeSamples;BOOL bTemporalCompression;ULONG lSampleSize;GUID formattype;IUnknown* pUnk;ULONG cbFormat;/* [size_is] */ BYTE __RPC_FAR* pbFormat;} AM_MEDIA_TYPE;

Members

  • majortype
    Major type of the media sample.

  • subtype
    Subtype of the media sample.

  • bFixedSizeSamples
    If TRUE, samples are of a fixed size.

  • bTemporalCompression
    If TRUE, samples are compressed.

  • lSampleSize
    Size of the sample in bytes.

  • formattype
    Registered (GUID) format type.

  • pUnk
    Pointer to the IUnknown interface.

  • cbFormat
    Size of the format section of the media type.

  • pbFormat
    Pointer to the format section of the media type. The layout of this is determined by the format type GUID.

    Format types include the following.

    FORMAT_MPEGVideo MPEG1VIDEOINFO
    FORMAT_VideoInfo VIDEOINFOHEADER
    FORMAT_WaveFormatEx WAVEFORMATEX
    FORMAT_MPEG2Video MPEG2VIDEOINFO
    FORMAT_VideoInfo2 VIDEOINFOHEADER2

Remarks

Media Types

In any function that receives an AM_MEDIA_TYPE parameter, always validate the values of cbFormat and formattype before dereferencing the pbFormat member.

The following code is incorrect:

if (pmt->formattype == FORMAT_VideoInfo)
{
    VIDEOINFOHEADER *pVIH = (VIDEOINFOHEADER*)pmt->pbFormat;
    // **** Wrong! ****
}

The following code is correct:

if ((pmt->formattype == FORMAT_VideoInfo) && 
    (pmt->cbFormat > sizeof(VIDEOINFOHEADER) &&
    (pbFormat != NULL))
{
    VIDEOINFOHEADER *pVIH = (VIDEOINFOHEADER*)pmt->pbFormat;
    // Now you can use pVIH.
}
