I need to open a file in "standby" mode from a shortcut, wait for an introduction speech and then play the file.
How can I open the file in Windows Media Player 11 by command-line without playing it?
According to this you can use /open in Windows Media Player 6.4, but it seems that the command line options have since changed.
You can make a .bat/.cmd file with a pause statement. At the end of the intro you can then press Enter and the video will start. Here's an example:
@echo off
echo Tested on Windows 7 64-bit
pause
start /d "%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Windows Media Player" wmplayer.exe "C:\Users\Username\Videos\GTA 4\test.avi"
Simply type the song name as music.mp3
.
If there is any space in songs name just write it as "music new.mp3"
. Here, music
stands for the title of the song you wanted to play.
