Windows Media Player 11 SDK Adding a Playlist 

Adding a Playlist

You can use playlists to choose from collections of your audio and video.

The first step is to use the shell you will use for most skins:

Now add a second VIEW, which contains a playlist. Place the following code after the </VIEW> of the shell code.

You will need to give this second view an ID so you can refer to it later. Add a PLAYELEMENT and a STOPELEMENT. These predefined buttons make life easier.

Finally, add an onClick event to the PLAYELEMENT to display a playlist in the second view:

You can see a similar working playlist skin in the sample section of the SDK.
