capCaptureStop

The capCaptureStop macro stops the capture operation. You can use this macro or explicitly send the WM_CAP_STOP message.

In step frame capture, the image data that was collected before this message was sent is retained in the capture file. An equivalent duration of audio data is also retained in the capture file if audio capture was enabled.

BOOL capCaptureStop(
  hwnd  
);

Parameters

Return Values

Remarks

The capture operation must yield to use this message. Use the capCaptureAbort macro to abandon the current capture operation.
