I was trying to use this example with VS 2010. When I run the code A COM exception is thrown with the error code HRESULT: 0x80040216. How can I troubleshoot this issue. I can't find something meaningful when I google it.

Thanks.

The error is VFW_E_NOT_FOUND, which is defined in the old C/C++ header file "vfwmsgs.h", if it happens on the RenderFile method call, it means the file is just not there.

Ok I find the problem. The problem was that the media control could not find the avi file I was trying to play. When I copied the file to the application directory everything worked. So if you have this error check that the file you want to play is on the correct path.
