FormatTag Attribute
[The feature associated with this page, Windows Media Player SDK, is a legacy feature. It has been superseded by MediaPlayer. MediaPlayer has been optimized for Windows 10 and Windows 11. Microsoft strongly recommends that new code use MediaPlayer instead of Windows Media Player SDK, when possible. Microsoft suggests that existing code that uses the legacy APIs be rewritten to use the new APIs if possible.]
The FormatTag attribute is the format tag of the audio codec.
Applies To
Remarks
The value is a string representation of the decimal format tag value. For example, for Windows Media Audio 9 codec, the FormatTag attribute would contain the string "354".
