Windows requirements

Device family	Windows 10 (introduced in 10.0.10240.0)
API contract	Windows.Foundation.UniversalApiContract (introduced in v1.0)

Remarks

The encoding quality Auto is a special preset that fills in the proper settings based on the current camera settings. Settings that are manually modified are ignored. For example, if you create a preset profile using one the static create methods, such as CreateM4a, and specify Auto as the encoding quality, any changes you make to the properties will be overwritten with values based on the current camera settings.

Note

It is possible to create a MediaEncodingProfile that is not supported on a particular device. For example, you may successfully call CreateMp3, but if an mp3 encoder is not present on the device, attempting to encode audio with the properties returned from this method will fail. For a list of the codecs present by default for each device family, see Supported codecs..

Note

Only video encoding profile types support the encoding quality setting of Auto. Audio profiles don’t support this setting and will generate an error when the setting is used. For example: If you create a profile using MediaEncodingProfile.CreateMp3 with AudioEncodingQuality.Auto and then call PrepareStreamTranscodeAsync, you will receive a NullReferenceException error. In this case you will need to choose an encoding quality setting other than Auto to allow you to create a functional profile.

For how-to guidance for using MediaEncodingProfile to set the encoding properties for captured images, see Basic photo, video, and audio capture with MediaCapture. For information on using MediaEncodingProfile when transcoding media files, see Transcode media files.
