} ACMDRVFORMATSUGGEST;
The ACMDRVFORMATSUGGEST structure contains client-specified input arguments to the acmFormatSuggest function. The ACM fills in this structure with the client’s input arguments and passes it to an ACM driver with an ACMDM_FORMAT_SUGGEST message. ACMDRVFORMATSUGGEST is defined in msacmdrv.h.
Members
cbStruct
Size, in bytes, of the ACMDRVFORMATSUGGEST structure.
fdwSuggest
Contains restriction flags that limit the possible destination formats. Can contain any combination of the following flags.
| Flag | Meaning |
| ACM_FORMATSUGGESTF_ WFORMATTAG |
The wFormatTag member of the WAVEFORMATEX structure pointed to by pwfxDst contains a format tag. The driver can only suggest a destination format that is associated with the specified format tag. |
| ACM_FORMATSUGGESTF_ NCHANNELS |
The nChannels member of the WAVEFORMATEX structure pointed to by pwfxDst contains a channel value. The driver can only suggest a destination format whose channel value matches the specified value. |
| ACM_FORMATSUGGESTF_ NSAMPLESPERSEC |
The nSamplesPerSec member of the WAVEFORMATEX structure pointed to by pwfxDst contains a sample rate. The driver can only suggest a destination format whose sample rate matches the specified rate. |
| ACM_FORMATSUGGESTF_ WBITSPERSAMPLE |
The nBitsPerSample member of the WAVEFORMATEX structure pointed to by pwfxDst contains a sample size. The driver can only suggest a destination format whose sample size matches the specified size. |
pwfxSrc
Pointer to a WAVEFORMATEX structure describing the source format.
cbwfxSrc
Size, in bytes, of the WAVEFORMATEX structure pointed to by pwfxSrc.
pwfxDst
Pointer to a WAVEFORMATEX structure to receive the suggested destination format description. If flags in the fdwSuggest member are set, corresponding members of this structure contain client-specified values. The driver should fill in all empty structure members.
cbwfxDst
Size, in bytes, of the WAVEFORMATEX structure pointed to by pwfxDst. The driver cannot return an extended WAVEFORMATEX structure (see the Comments section) that is larger than this size.
Comments
The WAVEFORMATEX structures specified for source or destination formats might be extended structures defined for particular formats. (For example, see IMAADPCMWAVEFORMAT in mmreg.h.) Check the structure’s wFormatTag member to determine the format type and hence the specific structure being passed.
