ChannelURL Property

Retrieves a value representing the URL of the station metafile.

Syntax

[ "sURL" = ] MediaPlayer.ChannelURL

Possible Values

sURL String value representing the URL of the station metafile.
This property is read-only with no default value.

Remarks

This property only pertains to Advanced Streaming Format (ASF) content being received from a station (defined IP address and port number). Station information is stored in a Microsoft® Windows Media™ Station (.nsc) file. The station URL is the Uniform Resource Locator to the .nsc file. The station URL follows the syntax of typical URLs, except that it can also include the version number, which is separated from the rest of a URL with a # (pound sign). For example, a station URL might be:

http://example.microsoft.com/myfile.nsc#54

where 54 is the version desired. If the version of the .nsc file is on the local computer, a new .nsc file is not downloaded.
