Balance Property

This component is available for use in the Microsoft Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003 operating systems. It may be altered or unavailable in subsequent versions.

The Balance property sets or retrieves the speaker balance for the audio stream output.

Syntax

[ iBalance = ] MSWebDVD.Balance

Return Values

Returns and nteger value representing the balance levels. The allowable input range is -10,000 to 10,000. A value of 0 sets a neutral balance, that is both left and right speakers are given the same amplitude audio signal.

Remarks

This property is read/write with a default value of 0, meaning that both speakers receive equivalent audio signals. As with the Volume property, units correspond to .01 decibels (multiplied by -1 when iBalance is a positive value). For example, a value of 1000 indicates 10 dB on the right channel and 90 dB on the left channel.
