BPCVid.GotControl

The GotControl event notifies an instance of the Video control that the instance has control of a device. Visual Basic syntax is shown.

Private Sub object_GotControl

Parts

object

Object expression that resolves to a BPCVid object.

Remarks

The GotControl event occurs if the control instance requests a device that is not currently being used by an application with higher priority. If two devices have the same priority, the current control retains the device.

Your application must wait until it receives a GotControl event before it uses a device. Otherwise, applications currently using the device do not release the device, and unexpected behavior can occur.

For more information on application priorities, see Device Contention.
