Method GetStatusAsync

Namespace
OBSStudioClient.Model
Assembly
OBSClient.dll

GetStatusAsync(CancellationToken)

Asks OBS Studio what the media is doing, how long it is, and where it is.

public Task<ObsMediaStatus> GetStatusAsync(CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)

Parameters

cancellationToken CancellationToken

A token that ends the wait. A request that was not sent yet is not sent.

Returns

Task<ObsMediaStatus>

What OBS Studio says at this moment.

Remarks

The length and the position are only known while the media plays or is paused, and the position moves all the time: it is not kept in the model. The answer is not applied to State: it is what OBS Studio holds at the moment of the answer, including the states that the events do not announce (opening, buffering, an error). The request is made in its turn, after the changes that were asked for before it.

Exceptions

ObsRemovedException

The input was destroyed.

ObsNotConnectedException

There is no connection to OBS Studio.

ObsNotReadyException

OBS Studio is changing its scene collection, or did so after the call.

TimeoutException

OBS Studio did not answer in time (WriteTimeout).

ObsResponseException
