StreamType Property

Summary

Gets a string representing the GUID of the type of the current stream.

Syntax

C++/CLI

public string StreamType { get; }

public: 
property String^ StreamType { 
   String^ get(); 
}

Property Value

A value representing the GUID of the current stream type.

Remarks

This property is updated automatically when the CurrentStream property is set. To change the current stream, set the CurrentStream property to a new value. Once the current stream has been set, other MediaInfo properties are updated with information about the current stream.

Example

using Leadtools; 
using Leadtools.Multimedia; 
using LeadtoolsMultimediaExamples.Fixtures; 
 
 
public PlayCtrlForm _form = new PlayCtrlForm(); 
public bool _result = false; 
 
public void ResetSourceExample()

   PlayCtrl playctrl = _form.PlayCtrl;
