Hi,in my CgFX / hardware renderer plug-in I want to use the AVI codec settings of Cinema 4D rather than ask the user via MovieSaver::Choose. But how can I retrieve these data? From the documentation I got the impression that these data should be a subcontainer AVISAVER_FCCTYPE of the active RenderData. But actually this subcontainer seems to be missing even when one switches the output format to custom AVI.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Yeah, they should , but for historical reasons they are "inserted into the main container" instead. (As written in the docs...

Hi,
indeed I did read the docs beforehand!
I have a stupid question: What is "the main container"? I thought this meant the RenderData object itself. But it does not?

Yes, it's the RenderData BaseContainer.
All values directly match their AVICOMPRESSOPTIONS counterparts, only AVISAVER_LDATARATE is dwBytesPerSecond/1024. -

Hi,
now I found the problem: I thought AVISAVER_FCCTYPE would be a container with all the data (because the docs mention only this as element of RenderData). But no: AVISAVER_FCCTYPE is just a LONG value. Please edit the docs so that the give the type of AVISAVER_FCCTYPE. Furthermore, RenderData also contains the other members of AVISAVER_Options. That's not in the docs, too.

It's a bit confusing as written. AVISAVER_FCCTYPE just happens to be the first option. I'll make a named link instead in the next docs.
I don't know the type of AVISAVER_FCCTYPE. It's supposed to be evident from the AVI documentation. -

Hi,
all the types of AVISAVER_Options seem to be LONG. It would be better if one does not have to look them up in another documentation. For example, I just copy them to MovieSaver and don't want to know what exactly they are about.
