DTCPIPHost Attribute

[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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer.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 DTCPIPHost attribute is the name or IP address of the computer or device that must be contacted for the Digital Transmission Content Protection over Internet Protocol (DTCP-IP) Authenticated Key Exchange (AKE) for the media item.
