AxWindowsMediaPlayer size in WPF applications

I am using an AxWindowsMediaPlayer in a WindowsFormsHost in a WPF application.

I'm having problems with sizing the control.

  1. I need to hide the video part, and keep only the part with buttons and seek bar. (since I run audio)

  2. I need to adjust the WindowsFormsHost to only display this part.

I tried to resize the WindowsFormsHost manually so that it only shows the required part, but when I tested the program on different pc's it wasn't displayed properly. Some parts from the control were cropped.

You can also hide status, bar and controls 

axWindowsMediaPlayer.uiMode= "None";

I know you want to hide the video with the uiMOde

awWindowsMediaPlayer.uiMode= "invisible";

But, this hide controls too...

For me, you have two solutions:

the first, you create your axWindowsPlayer form with 45pixel of height for display just the controls button.

the seconds, you hide all the form, and create all your button...

you've acces at the controls button with : (play button for sample)

axWindowsMediaPlayer.Ctlcontrols.play();

And you've acces to the settings with : (volume for sample)

axWindowsMediaPlayer.settings.volume = 25;

I also saw that it was possible to define a custom uiMode, but I did not find any information about that...

You have two options.

  1. Set uiMode to invisible and define your own buttons (functions are accesable like: axWindowsMediaPlayer.Ctlcontrols.stop();).
  2. Set uiMode to mini or full and set height 40. It leaves control without video visible (link: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd562469%28v=vs.85%29.aspx)
