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 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.

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.

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?
