IConfigAsfWriter::GetCurrentProfileGuid method (dshowasf.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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation.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 GetCurrentProfileGuid method retrieves the GUID of the WM ASF Writer filter's current system profile, if any. (Deprecated.)

Syntax

HRESULT GetCurrentProfileGuid(
  [out] GUID *pProfileGuid
);

Parameters

[out] pProfileGuid

Receives the GUID of the system profile.

Return value

Returns S_OK if successful, or an HRESULT error code otherwise.

Remarks

This method applies only when the WM ASF Writer filter is configured with a system profile. If the application provided its own ASF profile instead of a system profile (as is recommended), the profile GUID is GUID_NULL. Applications should call IConfigAsfWriter::GetCurrentProfile to get the current profile.
