Is it possible to open a movie in iTunes with C#?

I'm developing a C# application that needs to be able to tell iTunes to open a .m4v file on Windows. Is this possible? I've tried on Command Prompt to do this but it just opened iTunes without opening the movie. Is there any iTunes command line arguments or am I out of luck?

Edit: Also, once the movie is launched, is it possible to control it, such as playing, pausing, or closing it?

Solution

  • Your best bet might be iTunes COM object (How to control iTunes through winForms)

    but I'm not sure if it's going to support action such as loading file into an iTunes, but if you are about to control it like play/pause, fast forward, rewind etc. then this is what you should looking at.
