BufferUpdateTime property

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

Type

[Visual Basic]

Public Property BufferUpdateTime As Int16


 

[C#]

public Int16 BufferUpdateTime {get; set;}


 

[C++]

public: __property Int16 get_BufferUpdateTime();

public: __property void set_BufferUpdateTime(Int16);


 

 

Remarks

The update time, expressed in milliseconds, of the DirectSound buffer used for song playback.

 

The supported range for this property, whose default value is 100, is between 5 and 100: higher or lower values will be automatically cut to the nearest supported value.

 

Decreasing the update time allows using a smaller DirectSound buffer set through the BufferLength property and also allows a better granularity in managing MIDI events but, obviously, will require a bit more CPU.
