MCI_UNFREEZE

This MCI command message enables the update of the frame buffer from the presentation source.

Parameters DWORD lParam1

The following flags apply to all devices supporting MCI_UNFREEZE:

MCI_NOTIFY

Specifies that MCI should post the MM_MCINOTIFY message when this command completes. The window that receives this message is specified in the dwCallback field of the data structure identified by lParam2.

MCI_TEST

Queries the device to determine if it can execute the command. The device returns an error if it is incapable of executing the command. It returns no error if it can handle the command. MCI returns control to the application without executing the command.

MCI_WAIT

Specifies that the unfreeze operation should finish before MCI returns control to the application.

MCI_DGV_RECT

Indicates the rc field of the data structure identified by lParam2 contains a valid display rectangle. The rectangle specifies a region within the frame buffer whose pixels should have their lock mask bit turned off. Rectangular regions are specified as described for the MCI_PUT command. If omitted, the rectangle defaults to the entire frame buffer. By using a sequence of freeze and unfreeze commands with different rectangles, arbitrary patterns of lock mask bits may be described.

LPMCI_DGV_RECT_PARMS lParam2

Specifies a far pointer to a MCI_DGV_RECT_PARMS data structure.

Return Value

Returns zero if successful. Otherwise, it returns an MCI error code.
