Hello, I am looking for a way to interact with a standalone full version of Windows Media Player. Mostly I need to know the Path of the currently played track. The iTunes SDK makes this really easy but unfortunately there really isn't any way to do it with Windows Media Player, at least not in .Net(C#) without any heavy use of pinvoke,...
I'm using a C# MailMessage to attach a wave file (8K) to an email message. I'd like to provide a player within the body of that email message that will play that wave file if the user chooses to do so. I've tried using the embedded <object> version of WMP, and a cid: reference to the file, but Outlook 2003 rejects the object tag and wo...

I've got an embedded Windows Media player in an HTML page, and when the audio gets to the end, it just starts again from the beginning. According to the documentation, there's an autorewind parameter/attribute and also a loop. The problem is, I've set both of those to false (and/or zero) and it doesn't seem to make any difference. Mig...
I'm looking to synchronize media libraries from other programs to Windows Media Player via .NET (specifically C#) code. The other programs allow for Smart Playlists and I would like to preserve that in Windows Media Player (WMP) now that it is capable of it as well. From what I can tell it's only possible to create the Smart Playlist t...

We have a SOAP-based webservice that our client uses to validate their updated live streaming video URLs. We implemented this service so our client can rotate their live streaming publishing points multiple times a day to obscure their location. The problem is that we do a number of checks on our end to validate these new publishing poi...

Hi, I have a WMP player object and I'm trying to add an event listener to intercept ScriptCommands that are sent to the player. Instead of being attached to the WMP object, my callback is being called right away, and then the ScriptCommands aren't being intercepted. function init() { var WMPlayer = document.getElementById("WMPlay...
Hey guys I am developing a Wpf App for a large client base, and have just found out that Windows Media Player 10+ is required in order to properly use the MediaElement XAML class in my Form. I personally don't use WMP, so I did not have it updated in my system (it was version 9, so no video played). I know for a fact many of the clien...
Hi, I'm trying to play a song in a WinForms C# application using the AxWMPLib COM control. However, I only want to play a specific 30 second region of that song.

I use the Windows Media Player Control (WMP.DLL) in my application to download (stream) and show videos. Once the video file is fully downloaded, I would like to save it to disk. Unfortunately I can't find a way to do so. I thought of using a hack: probably WMP does not hold the whole file in memory, so it must be somewhere on disk as te...
