PlayState Enumeration

  • Article

Defines values that indicate the play state of the current media. These values are used by the MediaTransport.PlayState property.

Syntax

public enum PlayState

The PlayState enumeration defines the following constants:

Constant Description
Buffering The media is buffering.
Finished The media has finished playing.
Paused The media is paused.
Playing The media is playing.
Stopped The media is stopped or has finished playing.
Undefined The play state of the media is unknown.

Remarks

In Windows 7, Stopped is returned when media has finished playing and when it has stopped. You can determine which state is correct by comparing the MediaTransport.Position property and MediaMetadata duration value; if they are equal, the media has finished playing.
