Definition

Namespace:

Windows.Media.Playback

public:
 property IReference<TimeSpan> ^ MaxPrefetchTime { IReference<TimeSpan> ^ get(); void set(IReference<TimeSpan> ^ value); };

IReference<TimeSpan> MaxPrefetchTime();

void MaxPrefetchTime(IReference<TimeSpan> value);

public System.Nullable<System.TimeSpan> MaxPrefetchTime { get; set; }

var iReference = mediaPlaybackList.maxPrefetchTime;
mediaPlaybackList.maxPrefetchTime = iReference;

Public Property MaxPrefetchTime As Nullable(Of TimeSpan)

Property Value

IReference<TimeSpan>

Nullable<TimeSpan>

The maximum prefetch time for MediaPlaybackItem objects in the playback list.

Windows requirements

Device family	Windows 10 (introduced in 10.0.10586.0)
API contract	Windows.Foundation.UniversalApiContract (introduced in v2.0)

Remarks

Prefetching allows the system to provide a more seamless playback experience because media content is retrieved before it is needed for playback. Setting a smaller maximum prefetch time can reduce bandwidth usage if the user stops playback before an item begins playing.
