The following code illustrates how to set run-time cue points for a media device.

                               /* Set a cue point 30 secs in the media */

   USHORT usDeviceID;
   HWND   hwndMyWindow;
   MCI_CUEPOINT_PARMS cuepointparms;        /* Cue point parameter
                                                structure             */

   /* Assign hwndCallback the handle to the PM Window - this returns
      MM_MCICUEPOINT messages.                                        */

   cuepointparms.hwndCallback = hwndMyWindow;
   cuepointparms.ulCuepoint = (ULONG) 30000; /* Current time format
                                                format = MS           */

   mciSendCommand( usDeviceID,        /* Device ID                */
    MCI_SET_CUEPOINT,                 /* MCI set cue point message */
    MCI_SET_CUEPOINT_ON | MCI_WAIT,
                                      /* Flags for this message   */
    (ULONG) &cuepointparms,           /* Data structure           */
    0);                               /* No user parm             */
