WindowlessActivation Property

  • Article

[The feature associated with this page, DirectShow, is a legacy feature. It has been superseded by MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine, and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation. Those features have been optimized for Windows 10 and Windows 11. Microsoft strongly recommends that new code use MediaPlayer, IMFMediaEngine and Audio/Video Capture in Media Foundation instead of DirectShow, when possible. Microsoft suggests that existing code that uses the legacy APIs be rewritten to use the new APIs if possible.]

Note

This component is available for use in the Microsoft Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003 operating systems. It may be altered or unavailable in subsequent versions.

 

The WindowlessActivation property initializes the MSWebDVD object at design time for either windowed or windowless mode.

[ bWindowless = ] MSWebDVD.WindowlessActivation

Return Value

Returns whether the object is in windowed mode as a Boolean.

Remarks

This property is read/write with a default value of true. Therefore, you only need to set this property if you are running the MSWebDVD object in a windowed container. When contained in a Web page in Microsoft® Internet Explorer, MSWebDVD is always in windowless mode, and you don't need to set this property.
