This article was previously published under Q175010 SYMPTOMS
When I install a video codec that I developed for use with NetMeeting and
then enumerate my codec, why doesn't it appear in the available list even
though IInstallVideoCodecs::AddVCMFormat succeeds?
RESOLUTION
In the case of installing video codecs for use with NetMeeting, the install
application should make three successive calls to the
IInstallVideoCodecs::AddVCMFormat() API for the three different sizes of
the video window supported by the NetMeeting Video:
Small (128x96)
Medium (176x144)
Large (352x288)
You need to install three versions of your codec to support the different
sizes. Make sure that the function in your code that executes these three
calls contains the right values for the video capture variables that are
supported by the video capture device driver. You should also reorder the
preferences for picking the right codec when you use the install
application.
