Parameter

Description

 

 

nIndex

Zero-based index of the picture frame. The total number of picture frames available inside the ID3V2 tag can be obtained through a call to the TagsReader.ID3V2_FrameCountGet method with the strFrameId parameter set to "APIC".

hBitmap

Reference that, on return from the method call, will contain the HBITMAP of the picture.

nOriginalWidth

Reference that, on return from the method call, will contain the original width, expressed in pixels, of the picture.

nOriginalHeight

Reference that, on return from the method call, will contain the original height, expressed in pixels, of the picture.

nResizeWidth

Value containing the width, expressed in pixels, for horizontally resizing the picture before returning the HBITMAP; this parameter is ignored if set to 0 in which case the picture represented by the HBITMAP handle will have the same width returned inside the nOriginalWidth parameter.

nResizeHeight

Value containing the height, expressed in pixels, for vertically resizing the picture before returning the HBITMAP; this parameter is ignored if set to 0 in which case the picture represented by the HBITMAP handle will have the same height returned inside the nOriginalHeight parameter.
