Windows Media Player without visulizations
myeyesglazeover 05.06.2007 06:06:00
I'm trying to embed WMP in a web page for autostarting an audio file (.mp3).
Is there a way to disable visualizations screens from appearing and just have
basic start/stop/volume controls?

You didn't indicate what code you're using to embed the player.

If you have a set of <param /> elements in your embedding code, you
show only the "UI" user interface quite simply by using

<param name="uimode" value="mini" />

Then set the height of your player object to 65 pixels. That leaves
space for only the controls, the video part of the display will be
hidden.

Another way is just to use CSS clipping on the surrounding element, so
for example with a 320px by 200px player embed, use this style on the
DIV : clip:rect(135px 320px 0 0);

HTH
