Answer 1

If you are using Visual Studio, you can use the API. To do this:

1. Right click anywhere in the toolbox
2. In the COM Components tab, select Windows Media Player
3. In the toolbox, there should now be a Windows Media Player item.

Using this method makes it much easier and saves a lot of time, if there are any problems take a look at this.

Hope this helps.
