CMsgThread.PutThreadMsg 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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation.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.]

Remarks
This member function queues a request for execution by the worker thread. The parameters of this member function will be queued (in a CMsg object) and passed to the CMsgThread::ThreadMessageProc member function of the worker thread. This member function returns immediately after queuing the request and does not wait for the thread to fulfill the request. The CMsgThread::ThreadMessageProc member function of the derived class defines the four parameters.
This member function uses a multithread safe list, so multiple calls to this member function from different threads can be made safely.
