Remarks

Note

This function isn't safe to call on a time-sensitive thread. For more information, see Time-sensitive threads.

The system associates a metadata event with a timestamp when this method is called. This metadata is used to identify events during live streams, and captured playback to categorize and search content. To store a double value that applies to a window of time, use XAppCaptureMetaDataStartDoubleState.

Double values used with this function must be finite. Non-finite doubles will be converted into 0 and accepted.

Note

Metadata may be uploaded to Xbox Live and/or saved to .mp4 files, screenshots or used during broadcast, as such, private user info should never be logged with meta data.
