[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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer.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.]

Remarks

This element defines a text string that specifies the copyright information for an ASX or ENTRY element.

When this element appears within an ASX element, the copyright string is displayed only as Show information. When this element appears within an ENTRY element, the text is displayed as clip information. Each parent ASX and ENTRY element should contain at most one child COPYRIGHT element. Multiple COPYRIGHT elements after the first will be ignored and will not be displayed.

The characters for copyright and trademark registration symbols ( or ) may not display properly if the metafile is not encoded using the UTF-8 encoding scheme. In this case, to display either of these symbols properly for all users, you can use the ASCII equivalents (c) and (R) instead.

If the metafile is encoded using UTF-8, copyright and trademark symbols will display correctly.
