BITMASKS

The BITMASKS macro retrieves the color masks from a VIDEOINFO structure.

Syntax

  BITMASKS(
  pbmi
  )

Parameters

pbmi

Pointer to a VIDEOINFO structure. 

Return Value

Example Code

VIDEOINFO *pVi;
/* Initialize pVi (not shown). */
DWORD dwRed   = BITMASKS(pVi)[iRED], 
      dwGreen = BITMASKS(pVi)[iGREEN], 
      dwBlue  = BITMASKS(pVi)[iBLUE];

Requirements

**  Header:** Declared in Amvideo.h; include Streams.h.
