The following example sets the time format to frames and obtains the current position if the device is playing.

MCI_DGV_SET_PARMS mciSet;

MCI_DGV_STATUS_PARMS mciStatus;

// Put in frame mode.

mciSet.dwTimeFormat = MCI_FORMAT_FRAMES;

mciSendCommand(wDeviceID, MCI_SET,

MCI_SET_TIME_FORMAT,

(DWORD)(LPSTR)&mciSet);

mciStatus.dwItem = MCI_STATUS_MODE;

mciSendCommand(wDeviceID, MCI_STATUS,

MCI_STATUS_ITEM,

(DWORD)(LPSTR)&mciStatus);

// If device is playing, get the position.

if (mciStatus.dwReturn == MCI_MODE_PLAY){

mciStatus.dwItem = MCI_STATUS_POSITION;

mciSendCommand(wDeviceID, MCI_STATUS, MCI_STATUS_ITEM,

(DWORD)(LPSTR)&mciStatus);
