TMediaPlayer and TMediaPlayerControlFMX

Recommended Posts

Hello ...
Try to add video files with TMediaPlayer and TMediaPlayerControl and always get "unsupported media file" for any video file type like *.avi, *.wmv or *.mp4.

I install the latest K-Full media codecs and the problem remains the same.

Anyone has some experience about TMediaPlayer?

 

P.S. Even the MediaPlayerHD example provided from delphi not working.

Thank you..

what kind of video file can supported,  depends on system, not by FMX.  Cause FMX just use default mediaplayer of system.

That i know, but mediaplayer from windows plays just fine.

So something else create the problem.

Be aware that there is a bug in the TMediaPlayer component that reports an "unsupported media file" error when it should have reported a "file not found" error. So first check if the file you are pointing to actually exists.

Dspack is a set of VCL control, so, you can use it to write a mediaplayer you self in VCL mode. And then, you can embed a VCL form into your FMX project.

Dspack wrapped DirectShow9 as pascal code and you can use it in Delphi. The MediaPlayer in FMX under Windows is Windows mediaplayer that using DirectShow9 and wrapped by pascal. So, essentially these two is wrapped the same Windows component.

 

By using Dspack, you have more degree of freedom, using TMediaPlayer by FMX, you have extremely few public method and property to use.

Download K_Lite_Codec pack and install. Either of the three variants will work.

 

Be certain you have:  OpenDialog1->Filter = TMediaCodecManager::GetFilterString();

included.
