.flv and .mp4
« Thread started on: Jun 17th, 2014, 12:47pm »
I don't know whether this topic has been covered before, but I am wondering whether there is any way of getting my program to play .flv or .mp4 files?
My program incorporates the code found at http://bb4w.wikispaces.com/Playing+a+media+file+using+Direct+Show and plays .mpg and .mp3 files happily. Is there any way of adapting that code to use players other than the WMP, which is what seems to come into use for those files?
Any help or advice appreciated.

You may well find that Direct Show will play them so long as you have installed the necessary codec(s). Try that before investigating anything more complicated.
