| Microsoft DirectX 8.1 (C++) |
Retrieves the current time from the multimedia stream's clock, if it has a clock.
Syntax
HRESULT GetTime(
STREAM_TIME *pCurrentTime
);
Parameters
pCurrentTime
[out] Pointer to a STREAM_TIME value that will contain the current time, if the media stream has a clock.
Return Value
Returns one of the following values.
| Return code | Description |
| E_POINTER | The pCurrentTime pointer is invalid. |
| S_FALSE | Stream doesn't have a clock; *pCurrentTime is zero. |
| S_OK | Stream has a clock and the method succeeded; pCurrentTime contains the current time. |
Remarks
If the stream doesn't have a clock, this method sets *pCurrentTime to zero and returns S_FALSE. If a stream has a clock, the stream sample times are relative to the stream's clock.
STREAM_TIME is defined as a LONGLONG value.
