I embedded windows media player in windows application C#. For that i wrote the following code,

form load()
{
 axwindowsmediaplayer1.URL=@"D://video.wav";
}

The above code work but seek didn't work that is for example if we want to forward the video simply we move the cursor, That is seek the position of the video rite....but my question is in my windows media control seek didn't work. I don't know what is the problem if anyone knows then please let me know.

I saw you question yesterday. Your title says windows application. But why the tag says ASP.Net.

No response from your side. However seek available with little delay. Once the media starting play/ buffer loaded then seek will be available. May be you can try setting axWindowsMediaPlayer1.Ctlenabled = true;

There may be an error in the wav, or it uses a poorly implemented codec - this is often the cause for this kind of behaviour.
