    2) Multimedia support was left out in the .Net framework. Apparently MS wants users to rely on DirectX 9 for multimedia, so you have to use DirectShow or DirectAudio.

    er ... ok...? but how :S

    and there are some other questions relating to this issue...

    I. If it's possible (well i think it is) to control a) system volume b) Windows media player volume with C#

    II. How to shut down Windows Media Player with C#? (And/or maybe shut down some other programs with C#, too)

    Thank you so much again for the help

    Download the Managed DirectX SDK from Microsoft. Quite a large download, be warned.

    Then see the examples on how to use DirectShow to play a simple sound file.

    You can control system volume with DirectSound or the API, and I suppose you can control media player volume (if there's a difference) via the media player control.
