AOStreamInspector

Rate a stream

Synopsis:

static AOStreamInspector media_filter =
{
    RateStream
};

Description:

Use this interface to determine if a given stream can be processed with this inspector's addon.

RateStream()

int32_t (*RateStream)(AOIStream_t *stream);

This function should return a rating, from 0 to 100, of how sure the filter is that it can process the given stream, where 100 is the best rating.

---

As a guideline, multimedia rating functions in existing filters return 80 when they can process data.

---

You should use only the AOStreamer's Sniff() function in this function. You should never call Read() from this function. You can use RateStream() to create a handle for the filter with the highest rating.
