I got this error when pressing the browse button

The reference for the DirectX.AudioVideoPlayback was not found in my list of .NET, so i used the one located in Windows/Microsoft.NET/DirectX for Managed Code/1.0.2902.0

note:I do have the latest Windows Media Format SDK installed. Or must I also have the DirectShow.Net?

its because the DirectX.AudioVideoPlayback only works in .NET 3.0 and the versions older then that, i've tried it my self and it doesnt work in .NET 4.0 try changing your application too .NET 3.0 and it should work

Ops forgot to update that I fixed this problem..
I created an app.config and added these lines..

<startup useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy="true">
    <supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.0"/>
  </startup>

my bad..

The example given shows method to locate a video file on the disk system. In C# is it possible to embed the video in the executable file and have it play from within or is the disk round-trip still going to be required (write the file to disk, point the player to the file on dis, play).
Why I ask, I am new to C# and wondered if this is at all possible for securing (hide) application resources within an application.

Toft: Please confirm the .Net version that should be used since you stated that only 3.0 variant should work, is there another method (DirectX.AudioVideoPlayback) that can be used in 4.0?
One more query, is there a simpler way to check what version of .Net is installed on a machine?

Kind Regards,
Kotin

Hey there, i dont know wich version of .net works with the DirectX.AudioVideoPlayback, when i first followed this tutorial, i used .net 4.0, but i wasnt able to run the application.. so i changed it too .net 3.0 and it worked instantly.. you could ofc use the code ZenQ posted so it will work in 4.0, but i dont know wich version of the .net framework it supports.. i've tried searching a bit on google but i didnt found anything useful. but if you wanna know maybe you should try searching for what version of .net it supports.

Thanks Toft. Will do my revision on the version. What about the question of embedding the video resource? and inspecting machine for version of .net installed?
Thanks for this post..

Thanks for this post..

as far is i know, you can see what version of the .net framework you have, under control panel / remove or add programs
atleast thats where i could find it , the other matter of embedding the video resource i guess its possible too add a video file as resource and then only use file in your video player. but i havent tried it out, so i cant tell you for sure if it will work, sorry mate

Thanks Toft,
See I can read/write/update registry keys in C# so will spend sometime and review this as well, need to troubleshoot the .Net installs (I know the software update manages this on the system i.e. will only keep most relevant version as it updates but just need to learn how to inspect the registry).

Sorry it took me so long to reply, I've been pretty busy...

I wrote this tutorial several months ago, long before .NET 4 was released. I was using version 3.5 of the .NET Framework, I believe.

Anyway, Managed DirectX (MDX) is now deprecated.

I have this error and i can`t get rid of it.
Error 1 The name 'viewport' does not exist in the current context.
Can someone help me?

Hi 

I have the same problem of DirectX not able to open the Video..... Only one differece that in my case is I could not found the diretX.AudioVideoPlayback.dll in .NET referecnes folder inspite of it was there in the loaction C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\DirectX for Managed Code\1.0.2902.0 

Here is my code....

[code] private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Cursor.Current = Cursors.WaitCursor;
            //string path_save;

            

            //IColor s = new IColor.
            // if (select_image == 0)
            //{
            OpenFileDialog open = new OpenFileDialog();
            open.Filter = "Flash Files(  *.flv;*.avi)| *.flv;*.avi";

            try
            {

                if (open.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
                {
                   string s1 = open.FileName;
                   //Microsoft.DirectX.AudioVideoPlayback.Audio a1 = new Microsoft.DirectX.AudioVideoPlayback.Audio(s1);
                  Video myvideo = new Video(open.FileName, false);
                  // myvideo.Open(s1);
                    myvideo.Owner = this.panel1;
                    myvideo.Play();
                }
            }
            catch (Exception)
            {
                throw new ApplicationException("Failed loading image");
            }
            Cursor.Current = Cursors.Default;

        }

My try catch loop is catching expection.....

Please let me know what is the reason for this .....[/code]
