Hi Brian,
You're talking about IMFPMPServer::CreateHost. In practice, you don't need to worry about this, since CreateHost is used only internally by MF. And the only time you ever need to deal with IMFPMPServer in the first place is if you're creating two sessions that use the Protected Media Path and want to economize by having them use the same mfpmp.exe process; for plain old protected playback (like the protected playback sample in the SDK), you don't need to worry about this at all. In case you're just curious, though, this param is is essentially a channel name through which the two processes communicate.
