String Description

Return Values

Remarks

A Web page must first request permission from the user to read information from or write data to the library. Invoking this method prompts the user with a dialog box that requests the specified permission level. This means that certain methods, properties, and events will be inaccessible from code if the appropriate access rights have not been granted. The current access rights level can be retrieved using Settings.mediaAccessRights.

Windows Media Player 10 Mobile: This method always returns true.
