Windows Media Player 9 Series SDK

The Microsoft Windows Media Player 9 Series Software Development Kit (SDK) provides information and tools to customize Windows Media Player and to use the Windows Media Player ActiveX control. This documentation also provides information about using Windows Media metafiles.

Support for customizing Windows Media Player is provided by:  · Windows Media Player skins.

Windows Media Player includes support for plug-ins that create visualization effects, that perform digital signal processing (DSP) tasks, that add custom user interface elements to the full mode Player, and that render custom data streams in digital media files created using the ASF file format.

Embedding the Windows Media Player control is supported for a variety of technologies, including: · HTML in Web browsers. Microsoft Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator version 4.7, 6.2, and 7.0 browsers are supported.  · Programs created with the Microsoft Visual C++ development system.  · Programs based on Microsoft Foundation Classes (MFC).  · Programs created with Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0.  · Programs created using the .NET Framework, including programs written in the C# programming language.  · Microsoft Office.
