Custom Graphics in Windows Media Player
[The feature associated with this page, Windows Media Player SDK, is a legacy feature. It has been superseded by MediaPlayer. MediaPlayer has been optimized for Windows 10 and Windows 11. Microsoft strongly recommends that new code use MediaPlayer instead of Windows Media Player SDK, when possible. Microsoft suggests that existing code that uses the legacy APIs be rewritten to use the new APIs if possible.]
With Windows Media metafile scripting, you can add graphics elements to Windows Media Player as the stream plays. There is one basic type of graphics you can add.
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| BANNER | Using the BANNER element you can place a banner (32 pixels high by 194 pixels wide ) image on Windows Media Player at the bottom of the video display area. You can then use a child element to add a hyperlink to the banner. |
