VIDEO.backgroundColor
[The feature associated with this page, Windows Media Player SDK, is a legacy feature. It has been superseded by MediaPlayer. MediaPlayer has been optimized for Windows 10 and Windows 11. Microsoft strongly recommends that new code use MediaPlayer instead of Windows Media Player SDK, when possible. Microsoft suggests that existing code that uses the legacy APIs be rewritten to use the new APIs if possible.]
The backgroundColor attribute specifies or retrieves the background color of the Video control.
elementID.backgroundColor
Possible Values
This attribute is a read/write String containing any Microsoft Internet Explorer color value or the value "none". It has a default value of "none", which means that if there is no video associated with the video control, the Video control is transparent and the background shows through.
Remarks
When the video is smaller than the window and stretchToFit is false, the background color appears around the video.
