I just inherited a project that uses a AxMediaPlayer control. The project
was building fine on the developer's computer, and I no longer have access to
that computer or the developer.
When I try to build the project on my computer, I get the following errors:
'AxMediaPlayer' cound not be found (are you missing a ...)
'AxWMPLib' could not be found (are you missing a ...)
The file AxInterop.MediaPlayer.dll existed in his release and debug
directories. If I add a reference to that file, the project will build fine.
However, I don't think that this is the right way to do it.
In VS 2003, I've tried adding a reference to the Windows Media Player
"msdxm.ocx" (and all of the other Windows media COM controls), but it still
fails to build with these errors.
I've also tried downloading every Windows Media SDK I could get my hands on
but there are no files in there that seem to have the
AxInterop.MediaPlayer.dll assembly.
Does anybody know what reference I should truly add to get this to work, or
of a way to generate the AxInterop.MediaPlayer.dll using aximp?
Thanks,
