Sequence Grabber Component Functions / Working With Channel Characteristics

SGGetChannelMaxFrames

The SGGetChannelMaxFrames function allows you to determine the number of frames left to be captured from a specified channel.

pascal ComponentResult SGGetChannelMaxFrames (SGChannel c, 
                                              long *frameCount);

c

Specifies the reference that identifies the channel for this operation. You obtain this reference from the SGNewChannel function, described on page 5-29.

frameCount

Contains a pointer to a long integer that is to receive a value specifying the number of frames left to be captured during the preview or record operation. If the returned value is -1, the sequence grabber captures as many frames as it can.

SEE ALSO

You set the starting value by calling the SGSetChannelMaxFrames function, which is described in the previous section.
