CBaseAllocator.GetFreeCount 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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation.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 GetFreeCount method retrieves the number of media samples that are not in use.

Syntax

HRESULT GetFreeCount(
   LONG *plBuffersFree
);

Parameters

plBuffersFree

Address of a variable that receives the number of samples that are not in use.

Return value
