About the Player Object Model

The Microsoft® Windows Media™ Player control is a standard ActiveX® control that uses Microsoft Component Object Model (COM) technology. The Windows Media Player functionality is distilled into a set of programming interfaces that follows standard COM guidelines. You can program these interfaces on a standard HTML Web page using the player control object model with Microsoft JScript® or Microsoft Visual Basic® Scripting Edition (VBScript). You can also program them in skins using Microsoft Jscript®. Only these two scripting languages are supported in this release.

Using the control with Microsoft Visual C++ or Microsoft Visual Basic or other languages using the IDispatch interface is not supported in this release.
