[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 It has been superseded by MediaPlayer.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 getLanguageName method returns the name of the audio language with the specified locale identifier (LCID).

Syntax

public System.String getLanguageName(
  System.Int32 lLangID
);


Public Function getLanguageName( _
  ByVal lLangID As System.Int32 _
) As System.String
Implements IWMPControls3.getLanguageName

Parameters

lLangID [in]: A System.Int32 that is the LCID.

Return value

A System.String that is the name of the audio language.

Remarks

An LCID uniquely identifies a particular language dialect, called a locale.

For Windows Media-based content, properties and methods related to language selection support only a single output.
