    Try using the RealPlayer ActiveX control. To do so, add the component named RealPlayer ActiveX Control Library

    you would have to go to http://www.realaudio.com/ and download realplayer7 and install it
    Use

    Maybe it has not yet been added to your components list. See if you have the file RMOC3260.DLL. If so, you can manually add it by clicking the Browse button on the components tab and selecting the file.

    If you don't want to use the Real Player Control, and the file is local, you could "Rip" it with a program like Streambox Ripper and then play the .wav file using the PlaySound API.

    I went in and manually added the component. Now "RealPlayer ActiveX Control Library" is checked and it put a realplayer icon on the tool bar.

    When i put my mouse over the icon is pops up "RealAudio". But show the icon of a RealPlayer file.

    When i try and use it, i drag it over to a form and set it to play a .rm file it will play the sound but no video. How do i get it to play video? Do you set the video some other way.

    I am using the dll RMOC3236

    Thanks
