Specifies the number of encoding passes that the encoder supports.
This property is read-only.
Data type
UINT32 (VT_UI4)
Property GUID
CODECAPI_AVEncCommonMultipassMode
Property value
This property is returned as a range of values. To get the supported range, call ICodecAPI::GetParameterRange.
Remarks
Decoding latency is defined as the amount of data the decoder must buffer. For example, setting this property to VARIANT_TRUE on an MPEG video encoder limits the types of GOP structures the encoder can use.
To set the current encoding pass, set the AVEncCommonPassStart property.
