Windows Media Player SDK

Cheers,

I am tasked to create a Media Player for my client that will be operated on 
a kiosk via touch screen.
Now this will have features like AudioCD Rip to MP3, burn mp3 to audio cd, 
Rip Video CD to divx or wmv.

I was wondering instead of using different tools for each functionality im 
aiming for. Is there an API/SDK for
windows media player that I could use?

tia
Randy.

The interfaces you are after are documented here: 
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb262381.aspx

however the WindowsMediaPlayer ActiveX component does not appear to 
provide a wrapper to the ripping and burning interfaces so if you want 
to do this in Delphi you may have to implement these yourself.

Or you could try the Windows Media Encoder .. Project -> Import Type Library
