If you have embeded Windows Media Player in your application, then simply
set its URL property. If you want to set the URL of a stand alone windows
media player instance, then i don't really know. Have you tried to launch a
the Windows Media player process passing your URL as a parameter?

Hi! Anybody tried using Windows Media Player 9 via win32com? (And more precisely, combining that with a Tkinter application.) I found a few earlier threads on Windows Media Player and Python, but it seems nobody has really got it to work, e.g. the below does not work: wmp = win32com.client.Dispatch("MediaPlayer.MediaPlayer.1") wmp.FileName = "C:/Path/To/Some/Media/File.wav"

I need to retrieve Windows Media Player playlists programmatically via C# from a desktop machine. Does WMP keep track of used/created playlists via registry entries or a saved file on the hard disk? I know WMP likes to save its playlists in directories such as: H:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\My Music\My Playlists but any .wpl files saved outside such a scheme wont be found if only looking here.

I'm using Windows Media Player object in a VB.net app but I'm reinventing the wheel to give users the ability to select their media. What I'd like to do is just use the "setTaskPane" switch to MediaLibrary and use all that Microsoft has already coded to allow users to manage their media. However, the SDK only gives this option with C++. Is their a work around to remote the embedded player using VB.net? I'm afraid I know the answer and...

I have a .avi file that uses the Divx codec. If I load it with windows media player program it works fine. If I load it using my control in a program, it doesn't display. Over standard media files work fine so it's this particular file. Do I have to do anything when the file uses a non-included codec? How can I tell what Codec it's using? TIA - Jeff.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
