);

Parameters

pReceivePin
Pointer to the IPininterface of the receiving pin.
pmt
Pointer to a returned media type.
pEnum
Pointer to an IEnumMediaTypesenumerator interface.

Returns an HRESULTvalue, which can include the following.

FAILED Resetting of the enumerator failed.
NOERROR Media type found.
VFW_E_NO_ACCEPTABLE_TYPES No acceptable media types were found.

Remarks

Given an enumerator, this member function cycles through all the media types proposed by the enumerator. Each type is suggested to the derived pin class and, if acceptable, is tried with the connected pin in a call to the IPin::ReceiveConnectionmethod. This means that if the owning pin proposes a media type, it is still checked to determine whether it is supported. This is deliberate so that, in simple cases, the enumerator can hold all the media types, even if some of them are not currently available.

This member function is protected.
