I have a WMP element in an application I am making. So far everything is just fine. My only question is if there is a way to control the visualizations that WMP shows in the window (you know the bars and pretty colors that animate when you listen to music?)

So far i've noticed that if you open Windows Media Play and select the visualization, that will be the one that shows in the .NET application. I just wondered if you could control that within the app

I always wanted to do this too so i can change this from my project
But i haven't find any code to manipulate this from the project itself.

I don't know of any way to control the visualizations. Maybe through Win API.

I can't answer this question, but I have one for you.

I can open wmp, but it opens in asynchronous mode using:

<code>Declare Function sndPlaySound Lib "winmm.dll" Alias "sndPlaySoundA" (ByVal lpszSoundName As String, ByVal uFlags As Long)</code>
is placded in the declaration of a module.

and in a button

<code> windowsmediaplayer1.url = "test.wav" </code>
