The Microsoft Windows Media Player OCX control 7.0 is a Microsoft ActiveX control.

It allows you to view Windows Media content embedded in web pages using a browser such as Internet Explorer.

It also provides a programming interface for rendering a variety of network streaming and non-streaming multimedia formats.

The Windows Media Player control is built on Microsoft DirectShow technology and uses an appropriate DirectShow filter graph to parse, decode, and render media streams. Consequently, the DirectShow codecs available on the Windows Embedded CE-based device determine the audio and video media formats that the Windows Media Player control can play.

The Windows Media Player control exposes a variety of methods, properties, and events for creating customized applications and Web pages. The Windows Media Player control does not support visualizations.
