Hello, I am trying to write a simple video bookmarking tool with python. It would allow you to keep track of and annotate locations in video files so you can quickly find and jump to them.
To do this I just need to solve two technical problems. The first is to instantiate a visible instance of Windows Media Player. The code listed in this posting works: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-win32/2005-August/003626.html but WMP doesn't show a user interface. I think I need to put the WMP COM object into a GUI object, but I'm very new to Win32 programming, so any help would be greatly appreciated! The second technical problem is to be able to ask WMP where in the video stream it currently is. And then I need to be able to tell WMP to start playing a file from a certain offset. Does anyone know how to do this? Also, I don't have to use WMP if this can be done easier with another media player. All I need to play are MPEG2 video files. Thanks, ER _______________________________________________ Python-win32 mailing list Python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
