Gets the duration of the media file currently opened.
Syntax
Property value
Type: Duration
The natural duration of the media. The default value is a Duration structure that evaluates as Automatic, which is the value held if you query this property before MediaOpened.
Remarks
A Duration value has a TimeSpan component.
- For Visual C++ component extensions (C++/CX), the data value of a Duration is a property named TimeSpan. This has a TimeSpan structure value, and that structure has a field named Duration that reports the duration as an int64 that counts in 100-nanosecond units. TimeSpan doesn't have any methods for getting components of the time in hours:minutes:seconds format.
- For C# or Microsoft Visual Basic, you can use utility methods of System.TimeSpan to get the duration components in whatever format you want. For example you can get TimeSpan.Hours, TimeSpan.Minutes and TimeSpan.Seconds separately.
- For more info, see Remarks in the Duration reference topic.
