capPreviewScale macro (vfw.h)

The capPreviewScale macro enables or disables scaling of the preview video images. If scaling is enabled, the captured video frame is stretched to the dimensions of the capture window. You can use this macro or explicitly call the WM_CAP_SET_SCALE message.

Syntax

void capPreviewScale(
   hwnd,
   f
);

Parameters

hwnd

Handle to a capture window.

f

Preview scaling flag. Specify TRUE for this parameter to stretch preview frames to the size of the capture window or FALSE to display them at their natural size.

Return value

None

Remarks

Scaling preview images controls the immediate presentation of captured frames within the capture window. It has no effect on the size of the frames saved to file.

Scaling has no effect when using overlay to display video in the frame buffer.
