DSP plugins should get loaded both in the OCX and in stand-alone WMP. I
know this for a fact as I'm doing the same thing.
UI plugins do not get loaded in the OCX mode.
Have you tried putting a breakpoint in your constructor? Just because
ProcessOutput is not being called doesn't mean your plugin isn't being
loaded. Media type negotiation may be failing.
I would suggest first setting a breakpoint in your DllMain. If that gets
hit, put one in the constructor of your DSP class. If that gets hit, put
instrumentation in the format negotiation methods (SetInputType etc.)
