OK, trying the correct group this time. :)

Hello, I wrote a WinForms app that uses the Windows Media ActiveX
control to play a movie. The app scans a directory for media files,
chooses one randomly, and then starts playback from a random
location.

I would like to do something similar that will run in Media Center,
so
that I can launch it with the remote control. Anyone know a good
approach? Hosting the current WinForms implementation inside Media
Center didn't seem very practical, so I could use some pointers, or
even better, a good Visual Studio template, to get started down the
Media Center SDK route.


Thanks,
BGU
