Controls.getAudioLanguageDescription method

[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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer.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 getAudioLanguageDescription method retrieves the description for the audio language corresponding to the specified one-based index.

Syntax

strRetVal = Controls.getAudioLanguageDescription(
  index
)

Parameters

index [in]

Number (long) specifying the one-based audio language index.

Return value

This method returns a String value.

Remarks

Use the audioLanguageCount property to get the number of supported audio languages, and then access an audio language individually by using a one-based index.

Windows Media Player 10 Mobile: This method is not supported.
