Temporary Attribute

The Temporary attribute specifies whether a playlist is temporary.

Remarks

If you retrieved a playlist from the library, changes you make to the playlist will be reflected in the user's library. To avoid this, call IWMPPlaylist::setItemInfo passing the attribute name "Temporary" and the value "true". This converts your playlist instance to a temporary playlist, which is safe to edit without changing the original playlist.

Applies To

Requirements

Windows Media Player 11.
