PCM High Bitdepth Stream Data Range

This example uses a KSDATARANGE_AUDIO structure to describe the data range for a PCM high-bitdepth stream.

  DataRange.FormatSize  = sizeof(KSDATARANGE_AUDIO);
  DataRange.Flags       = 0;
  DataRange.SampleSize  = 0;
  DataRange.Reserved    = 0;
  DataRange.MajorFormat = STATICGUIDOF(KSDATAFORMAT_TYPE_AUDIO);
  DataRange.SubFormat   = STATICGUIDOF(KSDATAFORMAT_SUBTYPE_PCM);
  DataRange.Specifier   = STATICGUIDOF(KSDATAFORMAT_SPECIFIER_WAVEFORMATEX);
  MaximumChannels        = 4;   // max number of channels, or -1 for unlimited
  MinimumBitsPerSample   = 2;
  MaximumBitsPerSample   = 24;  // 24, 32, etc.
  MinimumSampleFrequency = 5000;
  MaximumSampleFrequency = 48000;

The member values above are similar to those in the PCM multichannel stream data range example, with the exception of the MaximumBitsPerSample value. This value is set to the sample container size and should be a multiple of eight. For example, if the device supports 20 bits of valid audio data in 24-bit containers, the value for MaximumBitsPerSample should be set to 24.
