I'm trying to instantiate and use a Windows Media Player COM object. I can do

Here's my code:
The code didn't come through, but can be seen on nabble.
Unfortunately, you are dealing with an OCX, so you need to host it in an
OCS container to see any such UI. Pythonwin has support for this
meaning you could have Pythonwin show the UI (see the
pythonwin/pywin/demos directory) but it's extremely difficult to have
that work via vanilla python.

I get the sound from this video, but no video window is shown. And in the
process list I don't find a wmplayer.exe process, just a wmpnetwk.exe
process (whereby I'm not sure if this process is related to my COM object).
I played around a bit and found that
actually opens a WMPlayer window; but that player can't be controlled by COM
commands; and similar are ineffective.
Maybe I'm just overlooking a silly detail, but I'm stuck on this - any help
is appreciated!
