Playlist Parser Plug-in Sample

The WMS SDK Sample Playlist Parser Plug-in illustrates how to write a Windows Media Services playlist parser plug-in and demonstrates how you can parse your own playlist file format based on your specific needs.

If this sample plug-in is enabled and Windows Media Services attempts to access a file with the extension '.playlist' then the sample playlist parser will be used to parse the file.

Note

   The playlist parser sample supports only playlists written using the ANSI character set.

Note

   If you are using this sample from the Platform SDK, you must register it before you can compile with Visual Studio. To do this, click Start, point to Programs, point to Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows Server or the equivalent on your computer, point to Visual Studio Registration, and then click Register PSDK Directories with Visual Studio.
