How would I get information from Windows Media Player to determine when a file is finished playing?

I am creating a program to for Windows Media Player. This program will use external buttons connected to a PCI card to read when a user presses a particular button. I need the program to wait until the video is complete before doing anything else. Is there any way to read this information with a property node?
Help will be much appreciated.

Attached is a very simply example (LV 8.2) of using that event.
You need to head over to Microsoft to get the details on the Windows Media Player properties and methods: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd564680%28v=vs.85%29.aspx

    Within iTunes use the add folder to library option available on file menu. Select the folder to add. iTunes will add the file to iTunes library. Depending on settings, iTunes may copy the file to iTUnes folder location.

    * To import all the audio files in a folder, choose File Add Folder to Library, and then locate the folder containing the audio you want added to your library. The My Music folder (inside the My Documents folder) is often the default location for song files imported into other applications, such as MusicMatch.
    By default, adding songs to your iTunes library places a pointer to each audio file in the iTunes Music folder; the original file remains in the current location. For information about copying files to the iTunes Music folder instead of referencing them, search help for "copying files to your music folder."
    If the file is an unprotected WMA file and you have Windows Media Player Series 9 or later installed, iTunes makes a copy of the file in AAC format—or whatever format is chosen in the Advanced pane of iTunes preferences (in the Importing pane) —and adds it to your iTunes library. The original WMA file remains unchanged. You can't add protected WMA files or protected WMV files to iTunes.

  • I can sync media files from Windows Media Player to my ipod, but the information will not show up on my ipod. Why?

    I HATE using iTunes (it's a pain in the bleeping arse) so, despite what someone from Apple told me, I tried to sync a song from Windows Media Player onto my ipod. The sync appears to be successful, and yet when I ejected my ipod to check to see if the song was on there, it was not. Why? And how do I get it on there? I want to avoid using iTunes at all costs.

    Try MediaMonkey or Winamp. Unlike Windows Media Player which will just blindly throw the files onto the iPod's hard drive these two at least (there may be others) know that they have to update the device's database if you are going to be able to access the content that has been added.

  • How to convert WMA files (from Windows Media Player) to play in iTunes

    How do I convert WMA files (from Windows Media Player) to now play in iTunes?

    Use Edit > Preferences > General tab > Import Settings to set your desired import format and bitrate. Note there is no point converting 128k wma into 320k mp3, you'll just get bigger files with no improvement in quality. Once you have set your import settings just drag & drop the files you want converted into iTunes.

  • How do I transfer from Windows Media Player to ipod?

    I have recently brought my first ipod and need help transfering my libary onto my ipod.

    Hello bountyboy,
    And welcome to Apple Discussions!
    The first thing you will have to do is import the music that is currently in your Windows Media Player library over to your iTunes library because that is the only way you will be able to sync any music to it. Here is an article that provides instructions on how to do this: [Transfer Music from Windows Media Player to iTunes|http://www.jakeludington.com/askjake/20080329_transfer_music_from_windows_media_player_toitunes.html]
    From there, you will be able to set your iPod up to sync the music and such however you wish. If you need more help on how to sync the music to your iPod, I think this Apple support document should be able to assist you.

    Hope this helps.

  • Getting files from Windows Media Player

    I tried to import some songs into iTunes, but was told that the CD was not compatible with iTunes. So, I put the files into Windows Media Player. Now when I open iTunes and then try to add files to the library, I can't find the CD I imported anywhere in My Computer. Does anyone know a way to get them into iTunes?

    Try your "My Music" folder; that's the default repository for music ripped by WMP.

  • Moving music from windows media player

    i swear ive done this before, but i cannot remember how i did it. how do i move .wma files from windows media player into itunes library? i cannot drag them over, i just get the circle w/ a slash. ive tried sync-ing them directly onto my nano from media player program & it lists them in the pop up window on my computer, but they are lsited no where in song titles on my actual nano for me to access. ive tried converying the format & it wont allow me. i know it can be done, i just cant figure out how. thank you.

    First, find out where Media Player has stored the music files on your computer. It typically is in Documents and Settings\(Your Name)\My documents\My Music and then there should be a folder that has a name that resembles Media Player. If you pull up Tools>Options and click the "Rip Music" tab it will show you where you have your music stored. So then pull up this folder that it tells you to, then pull up the iTunes window as well, and then simply drag and drop the folders into your iTunes music library. iTunes will convert the songs automatically for you, sometimes this may take a while. For example, I have 3300 songs on my Hard Drive and it took the entire day for iTunes to convert all of the ones it needed to. So just be patient and you should be good to go.

  • Import library and playlists from Windows Media Player without duplicates

    How do I import all the music and playlists from Windows Media Player into iTunes without creating duplicates?
    I add the folder containing all my music to iTunes and all my music arrives nicely. I begin importing playlists and the playlist comes over with all the songs duplicated in my library. Most of my songs are on playlists but some are not.
    After adding the music folder (approx 7000 songs) then all the playlists, my iTunes library now contains over 13,000 songs. The increase is due to the duplicates being created as the playlists are added.
    If I skip adding the music folder and just add the playlists I get most of my music without as many duplicates but I am missing the songs which are not on any playlist. Thanks.

    If it' sprotectged WMA files, no you can't add them.
    If they are plain WMA (like RIPped from a CD) you can File -> Add to library and iTunes will import and convert them.
