IAMVideoProcAmp Interface

The IAMVideoProcAmp interface contains methods for controlling video quality such as brightness, contrast, hue, saturation, gamma, and sharpness. It defines a uniform range for these settings regardless of whether the adjustment is made in the analog or digital domain.

For analog video, this interface will typically be located on the same processing element as the IAMAnalogVideoDecoder interface.

When to Implement

Implement this interface when your filter needs to control video quality.

When to Use

Use this interface when your application needs to adjust video quality.

IAMVideoProcAmp::Get

IAMVideoProcAmp Interface

Retrieves video quality for a specified property.

HRESULT Get(
  long Property,
  long * lValue,
  long * Flags );

Parameters

Property

[in] Specific property to retrieve the setting of. Specify a member of the VideoProcAmpProperty enumerated type.
