IMSVidCtl::get_InputsAvailable Method

This topic applies to Windows XP or later.
The get_InputsAvailable method retrieves the input devices that are available within a specified category.

Syntax

HRESULT get_InputsAvailable(
  [in]   BSTR CategoryGuid,
  [out]  IMSVidInputDevices **ppVal
);

Parameters

  • CategoryGuid [in]
    BSTR that specifies the GUID of the category to enumerate.

  • ppVal [out]
    Address of a variable that receives an IMSVidInputDevices interface pointer.

Return Value

If the method succeeds, it returns S_OK. If it fails, it returns an error code.

Remarks

Use the returned IMSVidInputDevices pointer to enumerate the devices.

This method is provided for Automation clients. C++ applications can use the IMSVidCtl::get__InputsAvailable method, which takes a GUID rather than a BSTR value.

If the method succeeds, the IMSVidInputDevices interface has an outstanding reference count. The caller must release the interface.

Requirements

Header Declared in Dshow.h.
DLL Requires Quartz.dll.
