ICSeqCompressFrame

The ICSeqCompressFrame function compresses one frame in a sequence of frames.

LPVOID ICSeqCompressFrame(

PCOMPVARS pc,
UINT uiFlags,
LPVOID lpBits,
BOOL * pfKey,
LONG * plSize
);

Parameters
pc

Address of a COMPVARS structure initialized with information about the compression.

uiFlags

Reserved; must be zero.

lpBits

Address of the data bits to compress. (The data bits exclude header or format information.)

pfKey

Returns whether or not the frame was compressed into a key frame.

plSize

Maximum size desired for the compressed image. The compressor might not be able to compress the data to fit within this size. When the function returns, the parameter points to the size of the compressed image. Images sizes are specified in bytes.

Return Values
Returns the address of the compressed bits if successful or NULL otherwise.

Remarks
This function uses a COMPVARS structure to provide settings for the specified compressor and intersperses key frames at the rate specified by the ICSeqCompressorFrameStart function. You can specify values for the data rate for the sequence and the key-frame frequency by using the appropriate members of COMPVARS.

Use this function instead of the ICCompress function to compress a video sequence.

You can allow the user to specify a compressor and initialize a COMPVARS structure by using the ICCompressorChoose function. Or, you can initialize a COMPVARS structure manually.

Use the ICSeqCompressFrameStart, ICSeqCompressFrame, and ICSeqCompressFrameEnd functions to compress a sequence of frames to a specified data rate and number of key frames. Use ICSeqCompressFrame once for each frame to be compressed.

When finished with compression, use the ICCompressorFree function to release the resources specified by COMPVARS.

    Nostalgia .Net     .Net is powerful, but not all-powerful, so sometimes we need to use Win32 API for our .Net applications. It's simple enough with Platform Invoke if you have Win32 skill, but we do not always have time to dig the ancient documentation, declare the special types that are compatible with Win32, find the values of the Win32's constants and so on. Nostalgia .Net offers several simple-to-use classes, and components that will allow you to forget about the headache of Win32 and just use the power of Win32 in your application the same way as you use the native.
