WindowsMediaPlayer Control
in [Visual Basic]

From: Dave on 26 Aug 2005 05:11 For some reason MS provide several interfaces for this but refuse to document them. I am interseted in using WMPVideoCtrl and am able to add it to a sub, but I can't make it do anything, presumably I need something like: Set myWMPVideoCtrl = myWindowsMediaPlayer.??????????? But I have no idea what the ????????? should be. A google on "WMPVideoCtrl" gave 1 hit asking much the same question with a reply from a MS person saying he "couldn't" give any information. "Someone" must know - mustn't they?

Add it to your form like any other control and away you go.

Done all that and indeed away it went, I now want to be able to set 200% & 50% from my own context menu, these are set with WMPVideoCtrl.Zoom but WMPVideoCtrl needs to be set equal to something and I don't have a clue and MS certainly aren't giving any clues as to what it should be set equal to. Thanks Anyway Dave.

From: Dave on 26 Aug 2005 09:11 Nick Thanks for your help but you are missing the point, I have the WindowsMediaPlayer (wmp.dll) control working, I know the interface I need to use is the WMPVideoCtrl and I know to use it I need to assign a variable to that and then set it equal to some part of the WindowMediaPlayer control, my problem is that there is no documentation as to what to set it equal to. The MPDisplaySizeConstants are NOT part of the WindowsMediaPlayer (wmp.dll) as far as I can tell (by trial & error) they belong to "MS Video Control Type Library" (msvidctl.dll) which is a different control. Of course they may interact and I'll have a look at this possibility over the weekend. Thanks Again Dave.
