Play Video files in Web sites
There are lots of situations where we have to play a video in our web page.
I describe the way of playing video in your webpage. There are two processes I illustrate here. One is from Html or Source view, and another is from code behind.
Process One:
<object id="MediaPlayer" height="200" classid="CLSID:22D6F312-B0F6-11D0-94AB-0080C74C7E95" standby="Loading Windows Media Player components..." type="application/x-oleobject" width="200"> <param name="FileName" value="mobile.wmv"> <param name="ShowControls" value="true"> <param name="ShowStatusBar" value="false"> <param name="ShowDisplay" value="false"> <param name="autostart" value="true"> <embed type="application/x-mplayer2" src="mobile.wmv" name="MediaPlayer" width="100%" height="190" showcontrols="1" showstatusbar="0" showdisplay="0" autostart="0"></embed> <br /></object>OR BY Using Interop, you can acheive this by the following three methods: Process Two
using System; using System.Data; using System.Configuration; using System.Collections; using System.Web; using System.Web.Security; using System.Web.UI; using System.Web.UI.WebControls; using System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts; using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls; using System.Media; using WMPLib; //Add this COM Component Reference to your project public partial class Play : System.Web.UI.Page { protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { } protected void btnPlay_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { string _path = "Your File Path"; //Method 1 using sound player class SoundPlayer _sm = new SoundPlayer(_path); _sm.Play(); //Method 2 Microsoft.VisualBasic.Devices.Audio _mvda = new Microsoft.VisualBasic.Devices.Audio(); _mvda.Play(_path, Microsoft.VisualBasic.AudioPlayMode.Background); //Method 3 using WindowsMediaPlayer Class WindowsMediaPlayerClass _wmpc = new WindowsMediaPlayerClass(); _wmpc.openPlayer(_path); _wmpc.play(); } }
