Windows Media Player Component

[sochanik]

Hi,

Im building an application using the Windows Media Player component and am having trouble getting the fullScreen function to work. Has anybody else got any experience using this component at all??

Cheers..

Ahh - its always the way - you spend hours trying to figure out how to do something, then 10 mins after you post to a forum asking for help, you figure it out!!

Oh - sorry!! To be honest it was pretty simple.... Winodws Media Player can onlt play in fullScreen mode when its playState is at wmppsPlaying.

So I just ran a check on PlayStateChange to see if its status was set to wmppsPlaying and if it was - I set it to fullScreen:-

Private Sub WindowsMediaPlayer1_PlayStateChange(ByVal NewState As Long)
If (WindowsMediaPlayer1.playState = wmppsPlaying) Then
WindowsMediaPlayer1.fullScreen = True
End If
End Sub

Cheers!
