Controlling Media Player

[Guest]

Is there any chance to control the media player via an interface ? Chris
Tacke posted in this newgroup:

"WMP has a COM interface, however CF 1.0 doesn't support COM interop.
CFCOM from Odyssey will allow you to do this though."

That means, if I dont want to buy this tool, I have to use the
COM-interfaces in eC++. OK, no problem, so I need the CLSID and the interface
definitons - of course, the old ones from sdk 8.0 don't work and microdoft
does not proivde newer ones. But if Odyssey is able to control the player,
they must have access to the necessary information. Does this mean, I must
pay many dollars to microsft to get this ?

I hope, that this isnt the truth Chris...

You can find the SDK details in the download here:-

The SDK includes a sample eVC++ application
