Solution 1

To learn how to create plug-ins for Windows Media Player, see the Windows Media Player SDK[^].

This should outline what you can and can't do with a plug-in in WMP.

To find information regarding the DirectX SDK and Windows Media Format SDK a quick Google (or Bing) search finds the MSDN pages for them which also contain sample code;
Windows Media Format 11 SDK[^]
DirectX Developer Center[^]

Also a quick search of this site found;
Various methods for capturing the screen[^]
Windows Media Audio compressor[^]
C# Windows Media Format SDK Translation[^] (this one is C#)

Lastly don't post another question as an answer modify your original question.

But Also others like DirectX SDK and
