Selection Property

Summary

Gets or sets the zero-based index of the selected Compressor item.

Syntax
C#
VB
C++
public int Selection { get; set; } 
Public Property Selection As Integer 
public: 
property int Selection { 
   int get(); 
   void set (    int ); 
} 

Property Value

The zero-based index of the selected item. Use -1 to specify that the stream is not to be recompressed.

Remarks

Playing audio or video data requires a decompressor. Note: For MPEG2 streams containing H.264, H265 or AAC encoded data, LEAD H264, H265 or AAC transcoders can be used to convert to ISO. Assignment can raise an error exception. For more information, refer to the Error Codes.
