Turning off video in WMP

Can anyone tell me how to turn off the video in Windows Media Player?
I am developing a music test for HS students. I added Windows Medial player to my controls. I can access the music files OK as URLs.

But I don't want the video to keep poping up. I just want the control.

I will appreciate any help you can offer.

Thanks

Howard

I think VB has a way to build WMP controls into your VB application via modules. I wouldn't suggest loading them as URLs as then you don't have very much control of how the opener program opens the file...

You should be able to control how the MediaPlayer control appears through the properties it exposes. Alternatively, you could use the VB MMControl, which will play audio files, or a Media / DirectShow API.
