IEnumPins::Skip method (strmif.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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation.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 Skip method skips over a specified number of pins.

Syntax

HRESULT Skip(
  [in] ULONG cPins
);

Parameters

[in] cPins

Number of pins to skip.

Return value

Returns one of the following HRESULT

Remarks

If the number of pins changes, the enumerator is no longer consistent with the filter, and the method returns VFW_E_ENUM_OUT_OF_SYNC. Discard any data obtained from previous calls to the enumerator, because it might be invalid. Update the enumerator by calling the IEnumPins::Reset method. You can then call the Skip method safely.
