Title: What is PLAYSTATE_WAITING?
Post by: Zoner on July 06, 2004, 03:59:36 am

The COM SDK incudes a property called State which is an enum indicating the playback state.  Most of the return values are self-explanatory (eg PLAYING, STOPPED, PAUSED) but there is another one called PLAYSTATE_WAITING.  What's the difference between PLAYSTATE_WAITING and PLAYSTATE_STOPPED?

PLAYSTATE_WAITING means MC is playing, but maybe it's waiting for data or for user interaction.

Typically, use (State != PLAYSTATE_STOP) to determine if MC is playing or not.
