IWMSPublishingPointCurrentCounters.StreamingMMSPlayers (Visual Basic .NET)

The StreamingMMSPlayers property retrieves the total number of players receiving streamed content using the MMS protocol.

Syntax

  Integer = IWMSPublishingPointCurrentCounters.StreamingMMSPlayers

Property Value

Integer containing the total number of players.

Remarks

This property is read-only. Clients that have stopped rendering the stream are not included in the count.

In Windows Server 2008 operating systems, this property always returns 0.

Example Code

Imports Microsoft.WindowsMediaServices.Interop
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices

Private Sub CountMMSPlayers()

    ' Declare variables.
    Dim Server As WMSServer
    Dim PubPoints As IWMSPublishingPoints
    Dim PubPoint As IWMSPublishingPoint
    Dim CurrentCounters As IWMSPublishingPointCurrentCounters
    Dim iValue As Integer

Try
    ' Create the WMSServer object.
    Server = New WMSServer()

    ' Retrieve the IWMSPublishingPoints object.
    PubPoints = Server.PublishingPoints

    ' Retrieve information about each publishing point.
    For Each PubPoint In PubPoints

        ' Retrieve a pointer to a list of current statistics
        ' for the publishing point.
        CurrentCounters = PubPoint.CurrentCounters

        ' Retrieve the current number of clients using
        ' the MMS protocol.
        iValue = CurrentCounters.StreamingMMSPlayers

    Next
