You can not. You are not even supposed to be able to do that.

You can only query other interfaces from an existing interface.

See my first mail: define N interfaces. When you receive an IFile interface from somewhere,
query it for the other interfaces:

Var
   MyFile : IFile;
   MyVideo : IVideo;


begin
   MyFile:=MyFileList[i];
   if MyFile.QueryInterface(IVideo,MyVideo)=0 then
     begin
     // MyVideo now holds a IVideo interface.
     end;
end;
