DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     dmBufferGetImageType returns the DMimagetype of buffer.

     dmBufferSetImageType makes	type the new DMimagetype of buffer.

     The following are valid values:

     DM_IMAGE_TYPE_INTRA    [Toc]    [Back]

     DM_IMAGE_TYPE_INTER    [Toc]    [Back]

     DM_IMAGE_TYPE_BETWEEN    [Toc]    [Back]

     These values are interpreted by the image converter library to indicate
     whether an	image is an intra-frame	(a frame that only depends on its own
     data to compress or decompress), an inter-frame (a	frame that depends on
     both its own data and data	from a previous	frame),	or a between-frame (a
     frame that	depends	on data	from multiple frames).
