Remarks
The encoding quality Auto is a special preset that fills in the proper settings based on the current camera settings. Settings that are manually modified are ignored. For example, if you create a preset profile using one the static create methods, such as CreateWav, and specify Auto as the encoding quality, any changes you make to the properties will be overwritten with values based on the current camera settings.
Note
It is possible to create an AudioEncodingProperties that is not supported on a particular device. For example, you may successfully call CreateMp3, but if an mp3 encoder is not present on the device, attempting to encode audio with the properties returned from this method will fail. For a list of the codecs present by default for each device family, see Supported codecs..
For how-to guidance for setting the encoding properties for captured audio, see Basic photo, video, and audio capture with MediaCapture.

Warning
The string values returned by the MediaEncodingSubtypes properties may not use the same letter casing as AudioEncodingProperties.Subtype, VideoEncodingProperties.Subtype, ContainerEncodingProperties.Subtype, and ImageEncodingProperties.Subtype. For this reason, if you compare the values, you should use a case-insensitive comparison or use hardcoded strings that match the casing returned by the encoding properties.
