CBaseControlVideo.get_BitErrorRate method

[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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation.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 get_BitErrorRate method retrieves an approximate bit error rate for the video.

Syntax

HRESULT get_BitErrorRate(
   long *pBitErrorRate
);

Parameters

pBitErrorRate

Pointer to the bit error rate (one error for approximately this many bits).

Return value

Returns NOERROR if successful or E_OUTOFMEMORY if there is not enough memory available.

Remarks

This member function implements the IBasicVideo::get_BitErrorRate method. It calls the pure virtual CBaseControlVideo::GetVideoFormat method to retrieve the VIDEOINFOHEADER structure from the derived class.
