Need Help with Media Player command-line switches....

K

Kendall

Hello,
I'm trying to create a shortcut that will play a short video in full
screen. I'm not sure how to arrange the command line switches. The one
I have here

"C:\Program Files\Windows Media Player\wmplayer.exe" /play /close
c:\shortclip.wmv

(excuse the word wrap)

will play the video, but not in full screen and media player will not
close once the video has finished.

These are the only command line switches I know about. Are there any
others?

/play play Media Player file immediately
/close close after playing Media Player file
/embedding run as an OLE server <---- what is this????
<filename> file or device to open


Thanks,
Kendall

I did find the /fullscreen switch, but still won't close after the
video is finished.
