IWMPSettings::get_autoStart (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)
1/6/2010
The get_autoStart method retrieves a value indicating whether the current media item begins playing automatically.
Syntax
HRESULT get_autoStart( VARIANT_BOOL* pfAutoStart );
Parameters
- pfAutoStart
[out] Pointer to a VARIANT_BOOL that indicates whether the current media item begins playing automatically. The default is TRUE.
Return Values
The method returns an HRESULT. Possible values include, but are not limited to, those in the following table.
| Return code | Description |
|---|---|
S_OK |
The method succeeded. |
Remarks
If pfAutoStart is TRUE, the media item will begin playing when IWMPCore::put_URL, IWMPCore::put_currentItem, or IWMPCore::put_currentMedia is called. Otherwise, the media item will not start playing until the IWMPControls::play method is called.
pfAutoStart for the full mode of Windows Media Player can be set globally by external events (such as loading a CD). Skins and remoted Player controls cannot expect a default value because they both employ the full mode Windows Media Player playback engine.
