IMFMediaEngine::TransferVideoFrame using WIC surface

Question

Hi there,

The IMFMediaEngine::TransferVideoFrame interface is described as below.

"Copies the current video frame to a DXGI surface or WIC bitmap."

Can anybody give me a sample on how to use this interface with the WIC bitmap or surface.

Any help will be very much appreciated.

Cheers!

Hi Jesse,

Thanks for your reply but unfortunately you did not answer my question yet.

I am looking for an example on how to use IMFMediaEngine::TransferVideoFrame with WIC bitmap. I already know that using a DXGI surface works as you pointed out. But the MSDN documentation specifies "Copies the current video frame to a DXGI surface or WIC bitmap." meaning there is an option of using WIC bitmap but how?

I think this was the same question as in the thread you pointed out but your answer merely redirected us to a different solution but not exactly the solution I need.

Can you also help out on this?

Thanks!
