+\section{\class{wxActiveXContainer}}\label{wxactivexcontainer}
+
+wxActiveXContainer is a host for an activex control on Windows (and
+as such is a platform-specific class). Note that the HWND that the class
+contains is the actual HWND of the activex control so using dynamic events
+and connecting to wxEVT\_SIZE, for example, will recieve the actual size
+message sent to the control.
+
+It is somewhat similar to the ATL class CAxWindow in operation.
+
+The size of the activex control's content is generally gauranteed to be that
+of the client size of the parent of this wxActiveXContainer.
+
+You can also process activex events through wxEVT\_ACTIVEX or the
+corresponding message map macro EVT\_ACTIVEX.

+\wxheading{Example}
+
+This is an example of how to use the Adobe Acrobat Reader ActiveX control to read PDF files
+(requires Acrobat Reader 4 and up). Controls like this are typically found and dumped from
+OLEVIEW.exe that is distributed with Microsoft Visual C++. This example also demonstrates
+how to create a backend for \helpref{wxMediaCtrl}{wxmediactrl}.

+\section{\class{wxActiveXEvent}}\label{wxactivexevent}
+
+An event class for handling activex events passed from
+\helpref{wxActiveXContainer}{wxactivexcontainer}. ActiveX events are basically
+a function call with the parameters passed through an array of wxVariants along
+with a return value that is a wxVariant itself. What type the parameters or
+return value are depends on the context (i.e. what the .idl specifies).
+
+Note that unlike the third party wxActiveX function names are not supported.

 on them they return to the beginning, thus wxMediaCtrl tries
 to keep consistant for all types of media.
 
+Note that when changing the state of the media through Play()
+and other methods, the media may not actually be in the
+wxMEDIASTATE\_PLAYING, for example. If you are relying on the
+media being in certain state catch the event relevant to the state.
+See \helpref{wxMediaEvent}{wxmediaevent} for the kinds of events
+that you can catch.
+
+
+\membersection{Video size}\label{videosizewxmediactrl}
+
+By default, wxMediaCtrl will scale the size of the video to the
+requested amount passed to either it's constructor or Create().
+After calling Load or performing an equivilant operation, you
+can subsequently obtain the "real" size of the video (if there
+is any) by calling GetBestSize(). Note that the actual result
+on the display will be slightly different when ShowPlayerControls
+is activated and the actual video size will be less then
+specified due to the extra controls provided by the native toolkit.
+In addition, the backend may modify GetBestSize() to include the
+size of the extra controls - so if you want the real size of the
+video just disable ShowPlayerControls().
+
+The idea with setting GetBestSize to the size of the video is
+that GetBestSize is a wxWindow-derived function that is called
+when sizers on a window recalculate. What this means is that
+if you use sizers by default the video will show in it's
+original size without any extra assistance needed from the user.
+
+
+\membersection{Player controls}\label{playercontrolswxmediactrl}
+
+Normally, when you use wxMediaCtrl it is just a window for the video to
+play in.  However, some toolkits have their own media player interface.
+For example, QuickTime generally has a bar below the video with a slider.
+A special feature available to wxMediaCtrl, you can use the toolkit's interface instead of
+making your own by using the \helpref{ShowPlayerControls()}{wxmediactrlshowplayercontrols}
+function.  There are several options for the flags parameter, with
+the two general flags being wxMEDIACTRLPLAYERCONTROLS\_NONE which turns off
+the native interface, and wxMEDIACTRLPLAYERCONTROLS\_DEFAULT which lets
+wxMediaCtrl decide what native controls on the interface. Be sure to review
+the caveats outlined in \helpref{Video size}{videosizewxmediactrl} before
+doing so.

+\membersection{Creating a backend}\label{creatingabackendwxmediactrl}
+
+Creating a backend for wxMediaCtrl is a rather simple process. Simply derive
+from wxMediaBackendCommonBase and implement the methods you want. The methods
+in wxMediaBackend correspond to those in wxMediaCtrl except for CreateControl
+which does the actual creation of the control, in cases where a custom control
+is not needed you may simply call wxControl::Create.
+
+You need to make sure to use the DECLARE\_CLASS and IMPLEMENT\_CLASS macros.
+
+The only real tricky part is that you need to make sure the file in compiled
+in, which if there are just backends in there will not happen and you may need
+to use a force link hack (see http://www.wxwidgets.org/wiki/index.php/RTTI).
+
+This is a rather simple example of how to create a backend in the
+\helpref{wxActiveXContainer}{wxactivexcontainer} documentation.

+// TODO: Actually test the CE IWMP....
+// TODO: Actually test HTTP proxies...
+
+//-----------------Introduction----------------------------------------------
+// This is the media backend for Windows Media Player 6 and ActiveMovie,
+// as well as PocketPC 2000, Windows Media Player Mobile 7 and 8.
+//
+// We use a combination of the WMP 6 IMediaPlayer interface as well as the
+// ActiveMovie interface IActiveMovie that even exists on Windows 3. For
+// mobile systems we switch to IWMP for WMP mobile 7 and 8 and possibly
+// earlier. We just use ifdefs for differentiating between IWMP and
+// IActiveMovie/IMediaPlayer as the IWMP and IMediaPlayer are virtually
+// identical with a few minor exceptions.
+//
+// For supporting HTTP proxies and such we query the media player
+// interface (IActiveMovie/IWMP) for the INSPlay (NetShow) interface.
+//
+// The IMediaPlayer/IActiveMovie/IWMP are rather clean and straightforward
+// interfaces that are fairly simplistic.
+//
+// Docs for IMediaPlayer are at
+// http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/wmp6sdk/htm/microsoftwindowsmediaplayercontrolversion64sdk.asp

+// Docs for IWMP are at

+//  quartz.idl
+//
+//  First, when I say I "from XXX.idl", I mean I go into the COM Browser
+//  ($Microsoft Visual Studio$/Common/Tools/OLEVIEW.EXE), open
+//  "type libraries", open a specific type library (for quartz for example its
+//  "ActiveMovie control type library (V1.0)"), save it as an .idl, compile the
+//  idl using the midl compiler that comes with visual studio
+//  ($Microsoft Visual Studio$/VC98/bin/midl.exe on VC6) with the /h argument
+//  to make it generate stubs (a .h & .c file), then clean up the generated
+//  interfaces I want with the STDMETHOD wrappers and then put them into
+//  mediactrl.cpp.
+//
+//  According to the MSDN docs, IMediaPlayer requires Windows 98 SE
+//  or greater.  NetShow is available on Windows 3.1 and I'm guessing
+//  IActiveMovie is too.  IMediaPlayer is essentially the Windows Media
+//  Player 6.4 SDK.
+//
+//  IWMP is from PlayerOCX.idl on PocketPC 2000, which uses CLSID_MediaPlayer
+//  as well as the main windows line.
+//
+//  Some of these are not used but are kept here for future reference anyway

+// This backend is for Desktops with either WMP 9 or 10 and Windows
+// mobile (5.0, some 2003 SmartPhones etc.) WMP 10 only (9 has no automation
+// interface but you can hack it with message hacks to play through
+// a currently running instance of media player).
+//
+// There are quite a few WMP 10 interfaces and unlike other media
+// backends we actually set it to automatically play files as it has
+// as huge caveat that you cannot (technically) obtain media information
+// from IWMPMedia including duration and video size until a media file
+// has literally started to play. There is a hack (and indeed we have
+// it within this file) to enable duration getting from a non-playing
+// file, but there is no hack I (RN) know of to get the video size from
+// a file that isn't playing.
+//
+// The workaround for this is to send the wxEVT_MEDIA_LOADED when the file
+// is about to be played - and if the user didn't change the state of the
+// media (m_bWasStateChanged), when set it back to the stop state.
+//
+// The ActiveX control itself is particularily stubborn, calling
+// IOleInPlaceSite::OnPosRectChange every file change trying to set itself
+// to something different then what we told it to before.

+/*
+   This is the GStreamer backend for unix. Currently we require 0.8 or
+   0.10. Here we use the "playbin" GstElement for ease of use.
+
+   Note that now we compare state change functions to GST_STATE_FAILURE
+   now rather than GST_STATE_SUCCESS as newer gstreamer versions return
+   non-success values for returns that are otherwise successful but not
+   immediate.
+
+   Also this probably doesn't work with anything other than wxGTK at the
+   moment but with a tad bit of work it could theorectically work in
+   straight wxX11 et al.
+
+   One last note is that resuming from pausing/seeking can result
+   in erratic video playback (GStreamer-based bug, happens in totem as well)
+   - this is better in 0.10, however. One thing that might make it worse
+   here is that we don't preserve the aspect ratio of the video and stretch
+   it to the whole window.
+
+   Note that there are some things used here that could be undocumented -
+   for reference see the media player Kiss and Totem as well as some
+   other sources. There was a backend for a kde media player as well
+   that attempted thread-safety...
+
+   Then there is the issue of m_asynclock. This serves several purposes:
+   1) It prevents the C callbacks from sending wx state change events
+      so that we don't get duplicate ones in 0.8
+   2) It makes the sync and async handlers in 0.10 not drop any
+      messages so that while we are polling it we get the messages in
+      SyncStateChange instead of the queue.
+   3) Keeps the pausing in Stop() synchronous
+
+   RN: Note that I've tried to follow the wxGTK conventions here as close
+   as possible. In the implementation the C Callbacks come first, then
+   the internal functions, then the public ones. Set your vi to 80
+   characters people :).
