CanScan Property
Retrieves a value specifying whether the current file supports scanning.
Syntax
[ bScan = ] MediaPlayer.CanScanPossible Values
This property is read-only with no default value.
bScan Boolean value specifying whether the current file supports scanning. If true, the file supports scanning. Remarks
If the value of this property is true, the current file can be scanned (fast-forwarded or fast-reversed), provided that the AllowScan property is set to true.
If a media file has not been selected for the player, by setting the FileName property or calling the Open method, the value of this property will be false.
Video on demand (VOD) and ASF both support scanning; however, ASF content can be scanned only if the following conditions are all true:
- The file is indexed.
- The file is playing from a Microsoft® NetShow unicast server (not playing locally).
- The file is not being broadcast.
