WMScripter Property

Summary

Provides a way to get the WMScript object.

Syntax
C#
VB
C++
public WMScript WMScripter { get; } 
Public ReadOnly Property WMScripter As WMScript 
public: 
property WMScript^ WMScripter { 
   WMScript^ get(); 
}

Property Value

A WMScript object, which can be used to manage the Windows Media Script commands.

Remarks

The object is read-only and can be null if the TargetFormat property is not set to TargetFormatType.WMVMux or TargetFormatType.ASFMux. You can keep a copy of the object but only as long as the target format does not change. If the target format changes, you should get the object again. For more information on Windows Media Script Commands, refer to WMScript object.
