Windows Media Player 11 SDK Adding Visualizations 

Adding Visualizations

You can add a visualization window the same way you added a video window. The same skin can be used, but an EFFECTS element is used.

First you must add the EFFECTS element and give it an ID and size:

Then you can assign the two buttons a previous and next visualization code string:

The layers and bitmaps were the same ones used in the video example, except that the play arrow was copied and flipped horizontally.

Finally, a simple PLAYER element with the URL attribute was added to choose a song to play.

You can see a similar working visualization skin in the sample section of the SDK.
