Returns a Long value specifying the video input configuration in FOURCC format.
object.VideoInputFOURCC
FOURCC is an industry-standard format that describes a video or audio format. The number returned is 32 bits; each 8 bits represents a character, and the four characters together describe the format (note that the order of the characters is right to left). For example, if the hexadecimal value returned is 0x3336326D, this represents the Microsoft H.263 Video Codec (m263).
The following Visual Basic code example converts a FOURCC Long value to a human-readable string:
HWH = (FOURCC And &HFFFF0000) / &H1000000 HWL = (FOURCC And &HFF0000) / &H10000 LWH = FOURCC - (FOURCC And &HFFFF0000) LWH = (LWH And &HFF00) / &H100 LWL = FOURCC - (FOURCC And &HFFFF0000) LWL = LWL And &HFF FCCS = Chr(LWL) & Chr(LWH) & Chr(HWL) & Chr(HWH)If 0 (zero) is returned, the format is standard RGB.
