Interface BitRateControl

All Superinterfaces:
Control

public interface BitRateControl
extends Control

This interface is a Control for retrieving the bit rate. The bit rates are specified in bits per second in all methods of this Control. This Control can be used to export the bit rate information for media under the control of an object.


Method Summary
 int getBitRate()
          Returns the current bit rate of the owning object.
 int getMaxSupportedBitRate()
          Returns the highest bit rate that this object can encode the media to, returns -1 if the bit rate is unknown.
 int getMinSupportedBitRate()
          Returns the lowest bit rate that this object can encode the media to, returns -1 if the bit rate is unknown.

Method Detail

getBitRate

int getBitRate()
Returns the current bit rate of the owning object. If the media is of variable bit rate, then the value returned is an instantaneous or average bit rate over a period of time. If the bit rate is unknown the method must return -1.

Returns:
the bit rate

getMinSupportedBitRate

int getMinSupportedBitRate()
Returns the lowest bit rate that this object can encode the media to, returns -1 if the bit rate is unknown.

Returns:
the lowest supported bit rate

getMaxSupportedBitRate

int getMaxSupportedBitRate()
Returns the highest bit rate that this object can encode the media to, returns -1 if the bit rate is unknown.

Returns:
the maximal supported bit rate
