Play a video using Winform Control

Add a reference to LibMPlayerCommon, LibImages, and LibMPlayerWinform.

Create a new file and class called test2 and paste in this code. You now have a working video/audio player.

C Sharp

using System;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using LibMPlayerCommon;


namespace Test
{
    static class Test2
    {
        [STAThread]
        static void Main()
        {
            System.Windows.Forms.Form frm = new System.Windows.Forms.Form();
            frm.Height = 600;
            frm.Width = 800;

            LibMPlayerWinform.WinFormMPlayerControl playerControl = new LibMPlayerWinform.WinFormMPlayerControl();
            var player = LibMPlayerCommon.PlayerFactory.Get(playerControl.Handle, @"C:\Users\Peter\Desktop\mplayer.exe");
            playerControl.SetPlayer(player);
            playerControl.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;
            playerControl.MPlayerPath = @"C:\Users\Peter\Desktop\mplayer.exe";
            playerControl.VideoPath = @"C:\Users\Peter\Downloads\sintel_trailer-720p.mp4";
            frm.Controls.Add(playerControl);

            Application.Run(frm);
        }
    }


}

VB

Imports System.Windows.Forms
Imports LibMPlayerCommon


Namespace Test
	NotInheritable Class Test2
		Private Sub New()
		End Sub
		<STAThread> _
		Private Shared Sub Main()
			Dim frm As New System.Windows.Forms.Form()
			frm.Height = 600
			frm.Width = 800

			Dim playerControl As New LibMPlayerWinform.WinFormMPlayerControl()
			var player = LibMPlayerCommon.PlayerFactory.Get(playerControl.Handle, "C:\Users\Peter\Desktop\mplayer.exe")
			playerControl.SetPlayer(player)
			playerControl.Dock = DockStyle.Fill
			playerControl.MPlayerPath = "C:\Users\Peter\Desktop\mplayer.exe"
			playerControl.VideoPath = "C:\Users\Peter\Downloads\sintel_trailer-720p.mp4"
			frm.Controls.Add(playerControl)

			Application.Run(frm)
		End Sub
	End Class


End Namespace

As we can see in the example above the most simple way to add video is to create an instance of the LibMPlayerWinform.WinFormMPlayerControl user control and add it to a form. Then set the path to mplayer.exe and your video and you are good to go.
