Stretching an Image

The following example stretches the images of a video clip. It increases the dimensions of the destination rectangle by using the MCIWndPutDest macro. The size of the playback area remains unchanged, so the result is a distorted, magnified image. The examples uses the MCIWndPutDest function to reposition the destination rectangle with respect to the playback area, providing a way to view different portions of the stretched image.

extern RECT rCurrent, rDest; 
 
case WM_COMMAND: 
   switch (wParam) 
   { 
       case IDM_CREATEMCIWND: 
           g_hwndMCIWnd = MCIWndCreate(hwnd, 
               g_hinst, 
               WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE, 
               "sample.avi"); 
           break; 
 
       case  IDM_STRETCHIMAGE:      // stretch destination RECT 3:2, 
           MCIWndGetDest(g_hwndMCIWnd, &rCurrent); // destination RECT 
           rDest.top = rCurrent.top;               // new boundaries 
           rDest.right = rCurrent.right; 
           rDest.left = rCurrent.left + 
               ((rCurrent.left - rCurrent.right) * 3); 
           rDest.bottom = rCurrent.top + 
               ((rCurrent.bottom - rCurrent.top) * 2); 
           MCIWndPutDest(g_hwndMCIWnd, &rDest); // new destination
