VDSetInputColorSpaceMode

The VDSetInputColorSpaceMode function allows applications to choose between color and grayscale digitized video.

pascal VideoDigitizerError VDSetInputColorSpaceMode
                               (VideoDigitizerComponent ci,
                                 short colorSpaceMode);

ci

Specifies the video digitizer component for the request. Applications obtain this reference from the Component Manager's OpenComponent function.

colorSpaceMode

Controls color digitization. The following values are valid:

0

Grayscale digitization

1

Color digitization

DESCRIPTION

Applications can determine whether a digitizer component supports grayscale or color digitization by examining the digitizer component's input capability flags. Specifically, if the digiInDoesColor flag is set to 1, the digitizer component supports color digitization. Similarly, if the digiInDoesBW flag is set to 1, the digitizer component supports grayscale digitization. Applications can use the VDGetCurrentFlags function (described on page 8-25) to obtain the input capability flags of a digitizer component.

RESULT CODES

noErr	0	No error
digiUnimpErr	-2201	Function not supported
qtParamErr	-2202	Invalid parameter value
