IWMPDVD::back method (wmp.h)

[The feature associated with this page, Windows Media Player SDK, is a legacy feature. It has been superseded by MediaPlayer. MediaPlayer has been optimized for Windows 10 and Windows 11. Microsoft strongly recommends that new code use MediaPlayer instead of Windows Media Player SDK, when possible. Microsoft suggests that existing code that uses the legacy APIs be rewritten to use the new APIs if possible.]

The back method returns the display from a submenu to its parent menu.

Syntax

HRESULT back();

Return value

The method returns an HRESULT. Possible values include, but are not limited to, those in the following table.

Remarks

Every DVD is authored differently. Some DVDs are authored so that the back method is available from the root menu, but when invoked, it will do nothing.
