[The feature associated with this page, Windows Media Format 11 SDK, is a legacy feature. It has been superseded by Source Reader and Sink Writer. Source Reader and Sink Writer have been optimized for Windows 10 and Windows 11. Microsoft strongly recommends that new code use Source Reader and Sink Writer instead of Windows Media Format 11 SDK, when possible. Microsoft suggests that existing code that uses the legacy APIs be rewritten to use the new APIs if possible.]

The SetProxySettings method specifies the proxy settings.

Syntax

HRESULT SetProxySettings(
  [in] LPCWSTR            pwszProtocol,
  [in] WMT_PROXY_SETTINGS ProxySetting
);

Parameters

[in] pwszProtocol

Pointer to a wide-character null-terminated string containing the protocol name. Supported names are HTTP and MMS.

[in] ProxySetting

A value from the WMT_PROXY_SETTINGS enumeration type.

Return value

The method returns an HRESULT. Possible values include, but are not limited to, those in the following table.

Return code	Description
S_OK	The method succeeded.
E_INVALIDARG	NULL or invalid argument passed in.

Remarks

Setting the protocol to WMT_PROXY_SETTING_MANUAL causes the reader to use the proxy settings from SetProxyHostName and SetProxyPort. Setting it to WMT_PROXY_SETTING_AUTO uses Web Proxy Auto-Detect mechanisms to dynamically determine the appropriate proxy based on the specified URL. Setting the protocol to WMT_PROXY_SETTING_BROWSER is valid only for HTTP URLs, and causes the reader to use the proxy settings that are configured in the browser.
