Hello,

I've written a program that uses the Windows Mediaplayer.

There are 2 files generated in my Bin folder:
AxInterop.WMPLib.dll
Interop.WMPLib.dll

When running in the vb.net ide it works.

When I copy this bin folder to another computer that has only the framework
installed, it gives an error:
Cannot invoke property set of 'URL' at this time.

Do I need to install an additional dll for the MediaPlayer?

TIA

I would imagine you would need the original WMPLib.dll too and possibly some
others, not sure about the distribution rules for that though...

Download the Windows Media Player SDK and see what is says:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/wmplay10/mmp_sd
k/windowsmediaplayer.asp

Hope this helps.

Matt

I figured it out I think.
I have coded for the mediaplayer version 9 (that has a property URL)

On the other computer the version is 7.01 (that has a property FileName)

Can I distribute some kind of dll to the other machine, without an upgrade
of media player, to this machine?
Which dll's are needed?

Thanks
