How to Set DVR Buffer Locations on Multiple Physical Disks (C++)

The following method for C++ shows how to get the DVR Sink object from the ltmmPlayControl object and use it to set DVR buffer location settings on physical disks C: and D:.

void SetDVRBufferSettings(IltmmPlay *pPlay) 
{ 
   IUnknown *punk = NULL; 
   HRESULT hr = pPlay->GetSubObject(ltmmPlay_Object_SourceFilter, &punk); 
    
   if(SUCCEEDED(hr) && NULL != punk) 
   { 
      ILMDVRSink *pDvrSink; 
      hr = punk->QueryInterface(IID_ILMDVRSink, (LPVOID*)&pDvrSink); 
      punk->Release(); 
       
      if (SUCCEEDED(hr)) 
      { 
          // Tell sink we are starting to change settings  
         pDvrSink->StartChangingAttributes(); 
 
          // Set Two locations  
         pDvrSink->put_FolderCount(2); 
         pDvrSink->put_BaseName(TEXT("Capture.LBL")); 
 
         // Set folder 1 location 
         pDvrSink->put_FolderName(0, TEXT("C:\\Temp\\DVR")); 
 
         // Set folder 1 file count to 2, each set to 16MB max file size 
         pDvrSink->SetBufferSize(0, 2, 16384000); 
 
         // Set folder 2 location 
         pDvrSink->put_FolderName(0, TEXT("D:\\Temp\\DVR")); 
 
         // Set folder 2 file count to 4, each set to 8MB max file size 
         pDvrSink->SetBufferSize(1, 4, 8192000); 
 
          // Tell sink to apply the changes  
         pDvrSink->StopChangingAttributes(VARIANT_FALSE); 
          
          // Release interface and free strings  
         pDvrSink->Release(); 
      } 
   } 
}
