Thanks Neil. I guess there is no plugin or enhancement for wmp that
allows you to digitally change key without changing the speed.

Well, I can confirm that anything I register as an add-in doesn't seem to
show up inIWMEncTransformPluginInfoMan ager.
Regarding getting ffdshow to work in just the WME encoder (on my end)
1. I'm not running x64
2. I have tried the "orginal" ffdshow
3. I have tried the newest ffdshow tryouts
4. I have reinstalled both.

Not that I'm aware. You can grab a copy of SpeexDrop from
[link]
It requires no installation. Run SpeexDrop, right-click on the parrot and
set your decoding options (I would recommend at least 16-bit PCM), then
drag-and-drop your Speex (.spx) files onto it to convert them to .wav

I have not encountered that error message before, but a couple of tips could
be:
1. I have never got it to work on a x64 system, so that might be the case.
2. Use latest version of FFDShow and use Complete / Ultimate install.
3. Try uninstall - reinstall both WME & FFDShow.
Good luck!
Still no answer form MS regarding the mysterious

In windows media player, from the Now Playing dropdown menu, choose
"Play Speed Settings". The region between 0.5x and 2x playback speed
will maintain the pitch.
Programatically, you can script the player object.
Use player.controls.isAvailable("f astForward") to check if you can use

As far as I know, there isn't a way to close a running WMP instance
through the WMP SDK.
However, the following code will work fine, and is a better solution
than your existing code, as it doesn't use undocumented command ID's:
System.Int32 iHandle;
iHandle = NativeWin32.FindWindow("WMPlay erApp", null);

I would like to know how you are successfully using the "ffdshow transform
plugins" with WME. I have been smacking my head against the wall trying to
use them in WME. Whenever I add the the FFDshow video decoder, subtitile,
etc as a plugin I get a message that stated there is no common media between

Re: is IWMSyncReader::OpenStream asynchronous ?

2009-12-31T20:16:05Z

Your code does not guarantee that the console writes will be
executed in a timely manner and or in the correct order,
because internally the WMSyncReader can use multiple threads
and because the console itself is buffered.
You need to add the following:
- flush after each write
- use a mutex to serialize access to the console
