Remarks
The Start method begins streaming the content referenced in theIWMSPublishingPoint.Path property. If the Path property references a playlist, an IWMSPlaylist object is created, and the publishing point begins streaming the content indicated by the playlist. If the Path property references a file, the server begins streaming content from the file. If the Path property references a directory, the server begins streaming the media files in that directory and subdirectories as if the directory is a playlist.
Example Code
using Microsoft.WindowsMediaServices.Interop; using System.Runtime.InteropServices; // Declare variables. WMSServer Server; IWMSBroadcastPublishingPoint BCPubPoint; IWMSPublishingPoints PubPoints; IWMSPublishingPoint PubPoint; try { // Create a new WMSServer object. Server = new WMSServerClass(); // Retrieve the IWMSPublishingPoints object. PubPoints = Server.PublishingPoints; // Retrieve each publishing point and retrieve the // IWMSBroadcastPublishingPoint object. for (int i = 0; i < PubPoints.Count; i++) { PubPoint = PubPoints[i]; if (PubPoint.Type == WMS_PUBLISHING_POINT_TYPE.WMS_PUBLISHING_POINT_TYPE_BROADCAST) { BCPubPoint = (IWMSBroadcastPublishingPoint)PubPoint; // Retrieve the current status of the publishing point. // The status is reported as the result of a bitwise OR // of any of the designated values. WMS_BROADCAST_PUBLISHING_POINT_STATUS ppsStatus; ppsStatus = BCPubPoint.BroadcastStatus; // If the publishing point is currently stopped, start it. if (ppsStatus == WMS_BROADCAST_PUBLISHING_POINT_STATUS.WMS_BROADCAST_PUBLISHING_POINT_STOPPED) { BCPubPoint.Start(); } break; } } } catch (COMException comExc) { // TODO: Handle COM exceptions. } catch (Exception e) { // TODO: Handle exceptions. }
