NS_E_LOG_NEED_TO_BE_SKIPPED
Mechanism and scope
This result (0xC00D1588) marks the logging pipeline intentionally decides not to persist the current log record. Treat the symbolic name as a map to the owning Windows Media Services subsystem rather than as a request to reinstall every media component.
What to record before changing anything
| First lower-level result | Preserve the earliest Win32, socket, COM, parser or plug-in event before the HRESULT; later wrappers can map several causes to this result. |
| Controlled comparison | Use a known-good object of the same type and vary only the precondition described as “the logging pipeline intentionally decides not to persist the current log record”. |
Do not merge nearby HRESULT values
Primary distinction: invalid play statistics rejects malformed data, while skip can be a valid logging decision.
| Nearby result | Different condition |
|---|---|
NS_E_HTTP_TEXT_DATACONTAINER_SIZE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED | the WMS HTTP Download Data Source received a text/playlist response larger than its supported container. |
NS_E_INVALID_PLAY_STATISTICS | a client logging request contains statistics fields or values that fail WMS logging validation. |
NS_E_PORT_IN_USE | the plug-in cannot bind its configured protocol/address/port tuple because another socket owns it. |
Code-specific failure anatomy
A representative occurrence is when the logging pipeline intentionally decides not to persist the current log record. Capture event type, logging plug-in decision, filters, duplicate/empty status and surrounding accepted records together with the object instance and the exact administrative or protocol request.
For a useful negative control, treat the skip as expected when policy matches; adjust the filter only when the record should be retained.
The tempting but misleading response is retrying the same record indefinitely or reporting streaming failure. That action does not test the distinction that matters here: invalid play statistics rejects malformed data, while skip can be a valid logging decision.
Test the owning precondition
- Capture
0xC00D1588, the symbolic name, the exact API/administrative action and the first failure timestamp. - Preserve event type, logging plug-in decision, filters, duplicate/empty status and surrounding accepted records.
- Perform one isolated experiment: treat the skip as expected when policy matches; adjust the filter only when the record should be retained.
Changes that do not establish the cause
- retrying the same record indefinitely or reporting streaming failure.
