Description Section
[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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer.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.]
Next, you must provide a section that describes the size and orientation of the skin when creating a skin for Windows Media Player 9 Series for Windows Mobile 2003 and later versions:
[ Description ]
// <X,Y> <DPI>
// ------ -----
Dimensions 240, 320 96
// <Orientation>
// -------------
Orientation Portrait
The Description section must begin with the word Description in brackets, and then include a line that specifies the dimensions and display resolution for the skin.
Lines beginning with two forward slashes are not processed, and can be used for comments or, as shown in the previous code, a template to help you remember what goes in a section. You can also use templates to help align everything into columns.
For more information about the Description section, see Description in the Skin Reference.
