Media Player project in c#

Question

I am working on one of the media project (windows application). In this the flv, avi and mpeg are the main file types which i have to play in application. I can use wmpLib, but it will not play flv files. So what procedure should i follow and what tools or libraries should i use.Is there any free opensource libraries to do media work. Thanks in advance

Answer 1

If you have the right direct show filters installed media player will play flv files.

Answer 2

Also you can use ffmpeg lib see here, I think it would be easy to convert to another format using that for playback I don't really know, maybe you can take a look at the source of vlc or take a look at some flv opensourced player around.
