Can not find System.Windows.Media

Question

Im creating a Windows Forms application using C# and VS 2010 Express on .NET 4.0

I need a media player in my app and Im trying to locate the Windows Media Control.

I went to Choose Items in the toolbox but no such reference exist and I also tried typing

using System.Windows.Media;

but the .Media can not resolve.

`System.Windows.Media` is from `PresentationCore` of WPF. It is not for `Winforms` application. — Mat J, Jan 01 '14 at 08:52
OK, so Is the Media Player control the only player for media files by Microsoft ? — IEnumerable, Jan 01 '14 at 08:53

Yeah I see the WMP in COM objects I was wondering why the Windows..Media namespace doesnt resolve ? But For this project the WMP Control will do also. – IEnumerable Jan 01 '14 at 08:41
