Settings.mediaAccessRights
[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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer.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 mediaAccessRights property retrieves a value indicating the rights currently granted for library access.
Syntax
player.settings.mediaAccessRights
Possible Values
This property is a read-only String.
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| none | Current item access rights only. |
| read | Read access rights only. |
| full | Read/Write access rights. |
Remarks
A webpage must first request permission from the user to read information from or write data to the library. This means that certain methods, properties, and events will be inaccessible from code if the appropriate access rights have not been granted. To obtain access rights, the application calls Settings.requestMediaAccessRights, passing a parameter that specifies the desired access rights level.
Windows Media Player 10 Mobile: This property always returns full.
