Is it possibel to use Xmovewindow with Windows Media player 10 ?

I try to make a page for six cameras from a Tv show Big Brother and that needs DRM licence and works only with windows mediaplayer

Yes what are we going to do about drm rights. Im using windvd 6 right now so I can hear 24bit audio and use interacual player with in it to view HD DVD's like T2 Extreme in 1080i and 24bit audio. To play the HD dvd's windvd uses win mediaplayer 9+. I hate to say this but some how I still need to use win media. I wish I could get around it but it would be nice to be able to use xmovewindow or some program that could see and control it like we can with winamp.

I made tests and unfortunatly it is impossible, because WMP doesn't allow to change the size of the inner video window outside it's skin (that is actually a bitmap)

The solution is to not use WMP directly but another player using the component internally. You will have the same capabilities with the possibility to change the size and position
