How do you playback MP4 video in a Windows Forms App

I'm wondering what the best way is to play back an MP4 video in a Windows Forms application (.NET 2.0) on Vista and XP.

take a look at iSpy - it's open source and wraps VLC player for mp4 playback.

You could Embed Windows Media Player on a Form.

UPDATE: WMP doesn't support MP4 out-of-the-box, but there are codecs packs that add such support. It's possible to bundle a codec installation with your setup, but I think WMP is able to fetch and install MP4 codec on its own.

Either embedding media player or look at managed DirectX (although MDX is a bit old now)
