IVMRSurfaceAllocatorNotify9::NotifyEvent method (vmr9.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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation.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 NotifyEvent method is called by the allocator-presenter to inform the VMR of any significant DirectShow events that it (the allocator presenter) generates during the allocation or presentation processes.

Syntax

HRESULT NotifyEvent(
  [in] LONG     EventCode,
  [in] LONG_PTR Param1,
  [in] LONG_PTR Param2
);

Parameters

[in] EventCode

Specifies the DirectShow event code.

[in] Param1

Specifies the first event parameter. The meaning depends on the event code. See Event Notification Codes.

[in] Param2

Return value

Return code Description
S_OK
The method succeeded.

Remarks

The VMR provides the allocator-presenter with a pointer to this interface in a call to IVMRSurfaceAllocator9::AdviseNotify. When the allocator-presenter calls this method and specifies some regular DirectShow event, such as EC_ERRORABORT or EC_VMR_RENDERDEVICE_SET, the VMR will pass the event to the filter graph manager.

Include DShow.h and D3d9.h before Vmr9.h.
