Solution 1

Do you have to write your own player?

I know one which is designed specially for this purpose: VideoLAN, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VideoLAN[^], see also: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VLC_media_player[^].

This is excellent Open Source project. VLC can also be used as a regular player supporting very many audio/video codecs and containers, a tool for conversion and a lot more. It can also be used to broadcast video right from the camera.

[EDIT]
A wrapper of VLC for .NET is also available: http://sourceforge.net/projects/libvlcnet/[^], so you can use it in your .NET software.

I guess "created a player" means inserting a Windows Media Player control, etc.?
You can do it to VLC as well, please see my updated Solution.

This is the updated useful information on the VLC component binding for.NET:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/libvlcnet/[^],
https://wiki.videolan.org/C_Sharp/[^],
https://wiki.videolan.org/.Net_Interface_to_VLC/[^].

Notably, you can find material for using the component for both WPF and System.Windows.Forms.
