IWMPNetwork::recoveredPackets property
[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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer.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 recoveredPackets property gets the number of recovered packets.
Syntax
public System.Int32 recoveredPackets {get; set;}
Public ReadOnly Property recoveredPackets As System.Int32
Property value
A System.Int32 that is the number of recovered packets.
Remarks
Each time playback is stopped and restarted, this property is reset to zero. The value is not reset if playback is paused.
This property gets valid information only during run time when the URL for playback is set by using the AxWindowsMediaPlayer.URL property. The value will be zero when using the HTTP protocol, which is lossless.
Examples
The following example uses recoveredPackets to display the number of recovered packets in a label, in response to the PlayStateChange Event. The example uses a timer with a 1-second interval to update the display. The AxWMPLib.AxWindowsMediaPlayer object is represented by the variable named player.
// Add a delegate for the PlayStateChange event.
player.PlayStateChange += new AxWMPLib._WMPOCXEvents_PlayStateChangeEventHandler(player_PlayStateChange);
// Create an event handler for the PlayStateChange event.
private void player_PlayStateChange(object sender, AxWMPLib._WMPOCXEvents_PlayStateChangeEvent e)
{
// Test whether content is playing.
if (e.newState == 3)
{
// Start the timer. Update the display every 10 seconds.
timer.Interval = 10000;
timer.Start();
}
else
{
// Not playing; stop the timer.
timer.Stop();
}
}
private void UpdateRecoveredPackets(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
recoveredPacketsLabel.Text = ("Packets recovered: " + player.network.recoveredPackets.ToString());
}
' Create an event handler for the PlayStateChange event.
Public Sub player_PlayStateChange(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As AxWMPLib._WMPOCXEvents_PlayStateChangeEvent) Handles player.PlayStateChange
' Test whether packets may be arriving.
Select Case e.newState
' If WMPPlayState is Stopped, Paused, ScanForward, ScanReverse, Waiting, MediaEnded
' or Transitioning then stop the timer.
Case 1
Case 2
Case 4
Case 5
Case 7
Case 8
Case 9
timer.Stop()
' If WMPPlayState is Playing or Buffering then set the timer interval and start the timer.
Case Else
timer.Interval = 1000
timer.Start()
End Select
End Sub
Public Sub UpdateRecoveredPackets(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles timer.Tick
recoveredPacketsLabel.Text = ("Packets recovered: " + player.network.recoveredPackets.ToString())
End Sub
