Look in the msdn for

This gives an example

Hello Everybody,
I have a simple question. Please have a look on the code below.
I am Selecting a CODEC for compression. The Input format is specified.
The API "ICLocate()" Select a suitable Codec for me and return its
Handle.

I just want to know this Handle refers to which Codec ? There are many
codec's listed in System/Properties/Video Drivers. Which one is this ?

and also, What should I do if I want to select a particular Codec ?

BITMAPINFO sLiveVideoFormat = {0} ;
HIC hCodecC = 0 ;

sLiveVideoFormat.bmiHeader.biSize = sizeof(BITMAPINFOHEADER) ;
sLiveVideoFormat.bmiHeader.biWidth = 160 ;
sLiveVideoFormat.bmiHeader.biHeight = 120 ;
sLiveVideoFormat.bmiHeader.biPlanes = 1 ;
sLiveVideoFormat.bmiHeader.biBitCount = 24 ;
sLiveVideoFormat.bmiHeader.biCompression = 0 ; // RGB
sLiveVideoFormat.bmiHeader.biSizeImage = 160 * 120 * (24 / 8) ;

hCodecC = ICLocate(ICTYPE_VIDEO, 0L, &(sLiveVideoFormat.bmiHeader), 0,
ICMODE_COMPRESS) ;
