Returns a Long value specifying the video codec.
object.VideoCodeFOURCC
FOURCC is an industry-standard format that describes a video or audio format. The number returned is 32-bits; each 8 bits represents a character, and the four characters together describe the format (note that the order of the characters is right to left). For example, if the hexadecimal value returned is 0x3336326D, this represents the Microsoft H.263 Video Codec (m263).
See the VideoInputFOURCC property for a Visual Basic code sample that will convert a FOURCC value to a human-readable string.
If 0 (zero) is returned, the format is standard RGB.
