Opening the Playback Window

The following example shows how to use the MCI_OPEN command to set a parent window and create a child of that window.

MCI_DGV_OPEN_PARMS mciOpen;

mciOpen.lpstrElementName = lpstrFile; // Set the filename.

mciOpen.dwStyle = WS_CHILD; // Set the style.

mciOpen.hWndParent = hWnd; // Give a window handle.

if (mciSendCommand(0, MCI_OPEN,

(DWORD)(MCI_OPEN_ELEMENT|MCI_DGV_OPEN_PARENT|MCI_DGV_OPEN),

(DWORD)(LPSTR)&mciOpen) == 0)

{

// Open operation is successful. Continue.

}
