CanSeek

Description

Returns a Boolean value specifying whether the current file has the ability to seek to a specific time.

Syntax
object.CanSeek

Remarks

You can seek a point in a file by time or by markers. CanSeek returns True only if the file was created by VidToAsf or WavToAsf. In either case, you must play the file either from your local hard drive or from a NetShow unicast server; an HTTP server or a broadcast using multicast routing will not allow you to seek into a file.

Seeking is accomplished by sliding the position indicator on the control or by using either the CurrentMarker or the CurrentPosition property.

This property returns False if FileName is not set.
