Remarks

This function isn’t safe to call on a time-sensitive thread. For more information, see Time-sensitive threads.
Each call to AppBroadcastRegisterIsAppBroadcastingChanged should be followed by a call to XAppBroadcastUnregisterIsAppBroadcastingChanged when the event handler is no longer needed. Failing to call the unregister function will cause memory leaks to occur. This function will register a second function, the XAppBroadcastMonitorCallback, which will be called when the status of the app broadcast changed.
