It should replace some of your existing playback-related api calls and will handle pre/post operations for you, like stopping transcoding. It also provides a playback abstraction over online/offline based playback and will use locally stored stored content when available.
See win8 app for example.
In addition.
BuildVideoItem and BuildAudioItem now have custom a PlaybackException that it will throw in certain conditions. The exception has an ErrorCode property with the following:
public enum PlaybackErrorCode
{
NotAllowed = 0 (user not authorized for playback),
NoCompatibleStream = 1 (could happen if admin disables transcoding),
RateLimitExceeded = 2 (admin might limit simultaneous streams per user)
}
So these need to be caught and an error message displayed to the user.
