hFile

Specifies the mp4 file to which the operation applies.

MP4FindTrackId gets the track id associated with the index'th track of the specified track type. For example, to get the track id of the first video track:

       MP4FindTrackId(hFile, 0, MP4_VIDEO_TRACK_TYPE);

For audio and video tracks, a subtype can be specified to find a track of a particular encoding. For example, to get the track id of the first audio track encoded with MPEG-1 audio:

       MP4FindTrackId(hFile, 0, MP4_AUDIO_TRACK_TYPE, MP4_MPEG1_AUDIO_TYPE);

Caveat: The track id's do not imply anything about the ordering of the track information within the mp4 file.
