Movie Player ActiveX

"Movie Player ActiveX," developed by ocx-activex.com, is a robust solution for Professional Windows Developers who seek to integrate video and audio playback functionalities into their business applications. The latest version, 4.7, weighing in at 16 MB, brings a suite of features that make multimedia integration seamless and efficient. This program is particularly valuable for those using Windows XP, and 7 and programming languages that support ActiveX, including Access, Visual C++, Visual Basic, Visual FoxPro, Delphi, and .Net.

One of the standout features of "Movie Player ActiveX" is its extensive playback support for formats like Divx, AVI, WMV, MPEG-1, ASF, QuickTime 2.0 and earlier, WAV, MP3, and MID. It offers flexible custom playback rates, allowing users to adjust the playback speed (normal, half, or twice speed). The program also provides options for custom views like Full Screen and Double Size, along with full control over the sound volume. Its capability to take snapshots from movie files (DIVX, AVI, WMV, MPEG-1, ASF) and manage the aspect ratio ensures high-quality video presentation.

User-defined display areas and detailed playback events are another plus, giving developers the freedom to tailor the playback experience to their application's needs. The program also provides comprehensive video/audio file information, including duration, video height, and video width. Furthermore, the OCX file can be distributed royalty-free, adding another layer of convenience for developers.

Previous versions 4.7, 2.0, and 1.0 are also available for those who might need them. The program falls under the Multimedia category, specifically within the Players subcategory, making it easier for users to identify the fitting application for their needs.
