for you.

Do some google searches for "streaming media".

Based on your understanding to the questions, i should you should go see an
english teacher, or a doctor.
Well i am asking since i tried using it the SAME WAY I USED IT ON THE WIN32
WINDOWS APPLICATION THAT I HAVE DEVELOPED and it didn't work the same way.
I dont think it's a problem that i wouldn't be a good ASP.NET developer as
EXCELLENT i am in Win32 development.
I didn't know that the GOD of ASP.NET WAS CALLED Kevin Spencer. It's not
cause you know something then you start making fun at people instead of
leading them. No one in this world knows everything. I think this news
group was made for experinced people in a certain field help out people who
are new or still novice in the field, not for people like you treating
others in that insulting and humiliating way.

THANKS FOR NOTHING

Hi Mustafa,

Sorry I made you angry. Desktop apps don't work in much of ANY way like web
applications. A web application is a much more complex app than a
single-user desktop app. And streaming media on a TCP/IP network is not
something for the inexperienced to do. Windows Media Player is a single-user
desktop application. It isn't designed to act as a server for multiple
Internet clients.

Your question indicated to me that your level of experience with Internet
appliications, HTML, and HTTP were lacking. Assuming that you are an
experienced programmer, you could probably teach yourself to write a web
application with streaming media in a matter of months (at best, assuming
that you're very intelligent). If you have that much time to please your
boss, well and good. Otherwise, you may need some help.

Note that in your original message, you said nothing about your being a
programmer, or having any programming skills. I simply suggested the
quickest alternative to going through the whole learning curve, and risking
your boss's wrath. I did not disparage your skills as a programmer; I had no
knowledge of them.

In other words, I was trying to help you. I won't make the same mistake
again.

Hi! Anybody tried using Windows Media Player 9 via win32com? (And more precisely, combining that with a Tkinter application.)

Basically, I want to check if a URL is playable or not (without actually playing it). i.e. given a URL I want to write an automation script to figure it out for me if it's playable or not. If you give a bad/invalid URL for windows media player to play a pop-up window shows us that it cannot be played. So I would want to catch that event.
