media player probs

Hey guys I posted this in the FAQs but I figured I would put it here to.

Here is what I am trying to do. I am trying to write a little app in vb.net
that when you first open
it, it plays a small avi file using media player 10. Right now when the
app opens it plays my little avi file but I would like the player to hide
showing the background behind the player, but I can't seem to get it to
work. Here is what I have so far:

Private Sub frmsnakes_load( ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArg s) Handles MyBase.Load

MediaPlayer.pla ylistCollection .getAll()

MediaPlayer.URL = "c:\glideoff.av i"

LoadHighScore()

End Sub
Private Sub MediaPlayer_End OfStream(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As _

AxWMPLib._WMPOC XEvents_EndOfSt reamEvent) _

Handles MediaPlayer.End OfStream

MediaPlayer.Vis ible = False 'Hide mediaplayer after avi finishes

End Sub

If I click on the player after its done playing the avi file it still
doesn't hide it. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks!

Mike

I'm trying to access the media player (V10) mediacollection object from my ..NET web service to return a list of media files. For some reason when i call getByAttribute("MediaType", "Audio") it does not return anything (ie. an empty playlist object), however if i call this using just a normal windows app, it returns all of my audio files as expected. I am suspecting it is using the ASPNET user (ie. default web service user) instead of...

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.

I'm working on project that plays movies using Windows Media Player and I'm controlling everything with JavaScript. Per the client I only need to support IE 6 or greater which happens to make things a bit easier. What I need to do is create a playlist and play it using JavaScript. I keep on getting close but not close enough to play the dang files. Has anyone done this before and can shed some light on what worked for them?

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

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,...

Dear forum friends, With the development of smart home technology, a variety of wireless communication protocols have appeared on the market, such as Zigbee, Z-Wave, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, etc. Each protocol has its own unique characteristics and advantages, but as a user who is planning to build a smart home system, I am a bit confused by the choice of these technologies.
