How To Play a File use DirectShow?

DirectShow application always performs the same basic steps:

1. Create an instance of the Filter Graph Manager.
2. Use the Filter Graph Manager to build a filter graph.
3. Run the graph, causing data to move through the filters.

Start by calling CoInitialize to initialize the COM library:

HRESULT hr = CoInitialize(NULL);
if (FAILED(hr))
{
// Add error-handling code here. (Omitted for clarity.)
}

To keep things simple, this example ignores the return value, but you should always check the HRESULT value from any method call.

Next, call CoCreateInstance to create the Filter Graph Manager:

IGraphBuilder *pGraph;
HRESULT hr = CoCreateInstance(CLSID_FilterGraph, NULL,
CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER, IID_IGraphBuilder, (void **)&pGraph);

As shown, the class identifier (CLSID) is CLSID_FilterGraph. The Filter Graph Manager is provided by an in-process DLL, so the execution context is CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER. DirectShow supports the free-threading model, so you can also call CoInitializeEx with the COINIT_MULTITHREADED flag.

The call to CoCreateInstance returns the IGraphBuilder interface, which mostly contains methods for building the filter graph. Two other interfaces are needed for this example:

• IMediaControl controls streaming. It contains methods for stopping and starting the graph.
• IMediaEvent has methods for getting events from the Filter Graph Manager. In this example, the interface is used to wait for playback to complete.

Both of these interfaces are exposed by the Filter Graph Manager. Use the returned IGraphBuilder pointer to query for them:

IMediaControl *pControl;
IMediaEvent   *pEvent;
hr = pGraph->QueryInterface(IID_IMediaControl, (void **)&pControl);
hr = pGraph->QueryInterface(IID_IMediaEvent, (void **)&pEvent);

Now you can build the filter graph. For file playback, this is done by a single method call:

hr = pGraph->RenderFile(L"C:\\Example.avi", NULL);

The IGraphBuilder::RenderFile method builds a filter graph that can play the specified file. The first parameter is the file name, represented as a wide character (2-byte) string. The second parameter is reserved and must equal NULL.

This method can fail if the specified file does not exist, or the file format is not recognized. Assuming that the method succeeds, however, the filter graph is now ready for playback. To run the graph, call the IMediaControl::Run method:

hr = pControl->Run();

When the filter graph runs, data moves through the filters and is rendered as video and audio. Playback occurs on a separate thread. You can wait for playback to complete by calling the IMediaEvent::WaitForCompletion method:

long evCode = 0;
pEvent->WaitForCompletion(INFINITE, &evCode);

This method blocks until the file is done playing, or until the specified time-out interval elapses. The value INFINITE means the application blocks indefinitely until the file is done playing. For a more realistic example of event handling, see Responding to Events.

When the application is finished, release the interface pointers and close the COM library:

pControl->Release();
pEvent->Release();
pGraph->Release();
CoUninitialize();
