What reference do I have to add to use "Microsoft.DirectX.AudioVideoPlayback.Video"? It is not recognized currently.

A:
You find the Video in microsoft.directx.audiovideoplayback.dll. Unless you're aware of it though, the Managed DirectX product is no longer supported and is superseded by Microsoft XNA.

I found the Video link, but I don't hv to dll file. So I went to search for the dll file. I found it, and my code and compile, but it can't work! No error nothing... Microsoft XNA? How do I start using it?

Currently I just want a simple piece of code where I can get the duration of the video, sth like this: http://bellouti.wordpress.com/2007/09/28/determine-a-video-size/ But this doesn't work.

XNA is (currently) not very suited to load arbitrary video streams for playback... Perhaps raising a new question with your real goal is an idea?

Ook, sure it wasn't just the DX runtime you were missing? you shouldn't need the whole SDK just to run the MDX libraries...
