Is it possible to run Windows Media Player in Fullscreen mode with
ActiveX in LabView?  If not, is there a different player I could
use?  I am trying to play video only (no sound) and the files are
mosly avis.

That's more or less what I tried to do, but Fullscreen wasn't an
option.  I think part of the problem might be with the version of
Media Player that I'm using. 

I tried just making an ActiveX container and inserting an object, but
couldn't actually find Media Player on the list.  I was looking
around on the ni website and found an example of using Media Player and
just copied the container with Media Player from that example, but I
think it is an old version (v6 maybe). 

Any ideas why I can't find Media Player in the list?  Maybe if I used a newer version Fullscreen would be an option.

Thanks for your help, Kenny.

I've got LabView 7.1 and I can't figure out how to get .NET &
ActiveX to show up on my controls palette.  I tried changing the
settings, but that didn't affect the content.  I used an ActiveX
container out of the containers menu on the controls palette. 
Then I right clicked on the container to add an ActiveX
component.  There is a long list of programs to add, but not Media
Player.  I've got Media Player 8.0 on my computer, so it should be
able to find it.
