NetShow Theater Server Administration Controls

The Microsoft® ActiveX® controls exposed in the NetShow Theater Server Administration SDK can be classified into the following two categories:

• The MediaServer control. This control supports an extensive set of properties, methods, and events for performing administrative tasks.
• The View controls. These controls provide a graphical user interface for monitoring and managing lists of clients, titles, and events.

Along with the Microsoft® Windows® Media Player control, the Administration controls can be used to create client applications for end-to-end high-bandwidth multimedia streaming solutions. For example, they can be used to obtain and display a list of titles available on a title server. The user can select a title from the list and play it using Windows Media Player.

Note The Microsoft® Windows® Media Player SDK is installed as part of the NetShow Theater Server SDK setup.
