Expanded Playlist Management

You can use server-side playlists to control which media elements are streamed to a client, and you can use the server object model to control a playlist dynamically. For example, your programs can use the Windows Media Services SDK to:

  • Load a playlist into memory.
  • Insert media elements into a playlist.
  • Remove media elements from a playlist.
  • Create a wrapper playlist and wrap requested content with additional media files, such as advertisements, that must be viewed whenever a client connects to a broadcast.
  • Use Active Server Pages (ASP) to personalize a playlist for a specific client or group of clients.
  • Switch control between media elements in response to an event notice.
  • Send event notices to a playlist.
  • Nest one playlist inside of another.
