Run, Pause, or Stop a Filter Graph
After you build or load a filter graph in GraphEdit, you can run, pause, or stop the graph. You can do this through the menu or the toolbar.
The following table lists the menu command, toolbar button, and equivalent Microsoft® DirectShow® method for each operation.
| Command | Menu | Toolbar | DirectShow Method |
|---|---|---|---|
| Run | On the Graph menu, click Play. |  | IMediaControl::Run |
| Pause | On the Graph menu, click Pause. |  | IMediaControl::Pause |
| Stop | On the Graph menu, click Stop. |  | IMediaControl::Stop |
If the graph is seekable, you can seek using the slider bar that appears below the toolbar.
