MovieImportSetMediaFile

The MovieImportSetMediaFile function allows an application to specify a media file that is to receive the imported movie data.

pascal ComponentResult MovieImportSetMediaFile 
                                    (ComponentInstance ci,
                                     AliasHandle alias);

ci

Identifies the application's connection to your movie data import component.

alias

Identifies the media file that is to receive the imported movie data. Your component must make a copy of this parameter. You should not dispose of it.

DESCRIPTION

Applications may use the MovieImportSetMediaFile function to specify a destination media file for imported movie data. By default, your movie data import component should add new data to an existing media file that is associated with the movie. However, you may choose to allow applications to specify an alternative destination file. This can be useful when your component is importing data into a new track. In this case, the application can use this function to tell your component where the media's data should reside.
