Request Example View Source

The AudioDeviceCollection type exposes the following members.

Constructors
  NameDescription
Public methodAudioDeviceCollection
Creates a AudioDeviceCollection class containing devices of the given category.
Top
Properties
  NameDescription
Public propertyCategory
Gets the category of the audio devices listed by this collection.
Public propertyDefault
Gets the default audio device of the chosen category.
Top
Methods
  NameDescription
Public methodEquals
Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Protected methodFinalize
Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodGetEnumerator
Returns an enumerator that iterates through the device collection.
Public methodGetHashCode
Serves as the default hash function.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodGetType
Gets the Type of the current instance.
(Inherited from Object.)
Protected methodMemberwiseClone
Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Public methodToString
Returns a string that represents the current object.
(Inherited from Object.)

Extension Methods
  NameDescription
Public Extension MethodHasMethod
Checks whether an object implements a method with the given name.
(Defined by ExtensionMethods.)
Public Extension MethodIsEqual
Compares two objects for equality, performing an elementwise comparison if the elements are vectors or matrices.
(Defined by Matrix.)
Public Extension MethodSetEqualsAudioDeviceInfo
Compares two enumerables for set equality. Two enumerables are set equal if they contain the same elements, but not necessarily in the same order.
(Defined by Matrix.)
Public Extension MethodTo(Type)Overloaded.
Converts an object into another type, irrespective of whether the conversion can be done at compile time or not. This can be used to convert generic types to numeric types during runtime.
(Defined by ExtensionMethods.)
Public Extension MethodToTOverloaded.
Converts an object into another type, irrespective of whether the conversion can be done at compile time or not. This can be used to convert generic types to numeric types during runtime.
(Defined by ExtensionMethods.)

Remarks
Objects of this class may be used to iterate through available audio devices present in the system. For example, by creating a AudioDeviceCollection specifying AudioDeviceCategory.Output to its constructor, it will be possible to iterate through all available output devices detected by DirectSound. To list capture devices, use AudioDeviceCategory.Capture instead.
Examples

The source code below shows a typical usage of AudioDeviceCollection.

Copy
// Create a new AudioDeviceCollection to list output devices:
var collection = new AudioDeviceCollection(AudioDeviceCategory.Output);

// Print all devices available in the system
foreach (var device in collection)
   Console.WriteLine(device.ToString());

// Get the default audio device in the system
var defaultDevice = collection.Default;
