IWMReaderNetworkConfig2::GetAutoReconnectLimit method (wmsdkidl.h)
[The feature associated with this page, Windows Media Format 11 SDK, is a legacy feature. It has been superseded by Source Reader and Sink Writer. Source Reader and Sink Writer have been optimized for Windows 10 and Windows 11. Microsoft strongly recommends that new code use Source Reader and Sink Writer instead of Windows Media Format 11 SDK, when possible. Microsoft suggests that existing code that uses the legacy APIs be rewritten to use the new APIs if possible.]
The GetAutoReconnectLimit method retrieves the maximum number of times the reader will attempt to reconnect to the server in the case of an unexpected disconnection. This feature, called Fast Reconnect, applies only to content being streamed from a server running Windows Media Services.
