Hi,

I want to programmtically detect the state of movie currently being played in Windows Media Player. i..e if the movie is maximized I need to find that it is maximized and put the word "MAXIMIZED" in text file, if the movie is paused I need to capture PAUSED in text file, if movie is stopped I need to capture STOPPED in text file.

The capturing needs to happen in the background i.e. totally transparent to end user as the user takes action while watching the movie on Windows Media player

I am planning to achieve this using Visual Basic 6.0

Kindly provide me inputs / pointers on how to go about this.

Thanks
