MCI_WHERE
The MCI_WHERE command obtains the clipping rectangle for the video device. Digital-video,
and video-overlay devices recognize this command. The top and left members of the returned RECT contain the origin of the clipping rectangle, and the right and bottom members contain the width and height of the clipping rectangle. (This is not
the standard use of the right and bottom members.)
MCIERROR mciSendCommand(MCIDEVICEID wDeviceID, MCI_WHERE,
DWORD dwFlags, (DWORD) (LPMCI_GENERIC_PARMS) lpQuery);
Parameters
wDeviceID
Device identifier of the MCI device that is to receive the command message.
dwFlags
MCI_NOTIFY, MCI_WAIT, or, for digital-video devices, MCI_TEST. For information
about these flags, see The Wait, Notify, and Test Flags.
lpQuery
Address of an MCI_GENERIC_PARMS structure. (Devices with extended command sets might replace this structure
with a device-specific structure.)
Return Values
Returns zero if successful or an error otherwise.
Remarks
The following additional flags are used with the digitalvideo device type:
MCI_DGV_WHERE_DESTINATION
Obtains a description of the rectangular region used to display video and
images in the client area of the current window.
MCI_DGV_WHERE_FRAME
Obtains a description of the rectangular region of the frame buffer into which
images from the video rectangle are scaled. The rectangle coordinates are
placed in the rc member of the structure identified by lpQuery.
MCI_DGV_WHERE_MAX
When used with MCI_DGV_WHERE_DESTINATION or MCI_DGV_WHERE_SOURCE, the
rectangle returned indicates the maximum width and height of the specified region. When
used with MCI_DGV_WHERE_WINDOW, the rectangle returned indicates the size of
the entire display.
MCI_DGV_WHERE_SOURCE
Obtains a description of the rectangular region (cropped from the frame
buffer) that is stretched to fit the destination rectangle on the display.
MCI_DGV_WHERE_VIDEO
Obtains a description of the rectangular region cropped from the presentation
source to fill the frame rectangle in the frame buffer. The rectangle
coordinates are placed in the rc member of the structure identified by lpQuery.
MCI_DGV_WHERE_WINDOW
Obtains a description of the display-window frame.
For digital-video devices, the lpQuery parameter points to an MCI_DGV_WHERE_PARMS structure. The MCI_DGV_WHERE_PARMS structure is identical to the MCI_DGV_RECT_PARMS structure.
The following additional flags are used with the overlay device type:
MCI_OVLY_WHERE_DESTINATION
Obtains the destination display rectangle. The rectangle coordinates are
placed in the rc member of the structure identified by lpQuery.
MCI_OVLY_WHERE_FRAME
Obtains the overlay frame rectangle. The rectangle coordinates are placed in
the rc member of the structure identified by lpQuery.
MCI_OVLY_WHERE_SOURCE
Obtains the source rectangle. The rectangle coordinates are placed in the rc member of the structure identified by lpQuery.
MCI_OVLY_WHERE_VIDEO
Obtains the video rectangle. The rectangle coordinates are placed in the rc member of the structure identified by lpQuery.
For video-overlay devices, the lpQuery parameter points to an MCI_OVLY_RECT_PARMS structure.
