windows mobile 5.0 smartphone
Dear All,
I installed visual studio 2005 beta 2 team suit on my XP machine.I am looking for samples to run a media file(.wmv).I am using wmp.dll and wmp.ocx.I opened the smartphone magneto and i am trying to drag & drop wmp.ocx but it is always disabled.
I am also trying to use provided API for wmp.dll,
WindowsMediaPlayerClass Player=new WindowsMediaPlayerClass();
Player.URL="C:/MyDocuments/Media.wmv";
Player.Play();
When i execute the above code, It is not giving any error but i could not see my media file Playing.
experts , please help me out of this situation.
Thank You.
Firstly, the device designer doesn't support drag drop activex control.
Second the wmp.dll is a library for desktop computer, it is not designed to run in Windows Mobile devices. If you want to programmitically play the wmv file, you would need to do P/Invoke or you can just play the wmv file by executing
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("Windows\Media.wmv", "")
