Windows Media Player SDK Wizard in Visual C++ 2005 Express

  I was trying this with the WMP SDK 10 and I couldn't get it to work either.  Are you creating custom visualizations   If so, what Visual C++ and SDK versions are you using   Thanks!

  Visual C++ 2005 official release came out after the WMP 10 SDK, so that's probably why there isn't any support for C++ 2005.

  I'm (trying) to make a DSP plugin that controls the closed caption of a DVD. I just had to get C++ 6.0 and I'm using WMP 9 SDK to ensure that people without Windows XP can use it. Hope this helps!

  I'm having trouble installing the WMP 9 SDK Wizard into Visual C++ 2005 Express. It's supposed to "self-install" on Visual C++ .NET, but with Visual C++ 6.0 you have to copy the wizard file to \Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common\MSDev98\Bin\IDE Neither of these worked for me. Is Visual C++ 2005 Express a .NET version or a standard version (5.0, 6.0, etc.) Is it possible to install the wizard with Visual C++ 2005 Express If so, how

  Did you find out how to do this

  No I didn't. They just released the "pay for" version of Visual C++ 2005 so I guess I'll have to wait 'till the next WMP version to be compatible.

  I know the response is very late and may not help the original poster. However, someone else may run into this so hopefully this will help them.

  The VC++ IDE wizard framework was changed after VC++ 6.0. Consequently, VC++ 6.0 wizards cannot be installed on later versions.

  VC++ 2005 Express is just one edition of VC++ 2005. It uses the new wizard framework (which was started with the VC++ 2002 release).

  You'll need to check if a newer WMP SDK has a new set of wizards designed for VS 2005. The VC++ 6.0 ones will not work.

  Thanks,
