Hi, I wonder if someone can help, please.
I am coding up a web application using ASP, C#, and a bit of javascript, and wish to enable videos from the server to be played in a popup window. I am using Windows Media Player.
Two specific questions I have:
1. I want the video to start playing automatically as soon as possible after the popup window opens, and so want to make use of the video buffer to stream. At the moment, however, the video loads but won’t start playing until the video is fully loaded. I have noticed that the windows media player is not displaying at the bottom of the player the fact that it is buffering, and wonder if anyone can help. I probably need to change some default parameters when popping up the window and running windows media player? Any ideas?
2. Also, I’d like to show a 'gallery' of videos that are available, similar in principle to that shown in windows explorer when viewing a directory of videos. I’d like the first frame of a video to be displayed to give some indication of content, and I wonder if anyone knows how to do that without going to the trouble of playing the first frame, capturing it, and displaying it as a static graphic. Any ideas?
Great if you can help !
