I'm making a Winform application on Linux with C# and Mono.
I need to view a video inside of my application.

Obviously the components related to Windows Media Player does not work .

In principle, enough for me to see a video ( no buttons with controls ) and have a chance to start it and stop it at will .

Do you have any indication of what can i use ?

What I have tried:

I tried use the wmp component of c#/.NET but it don't work on linux.

There is an existing Mono based OpenSource video player: Banshee[^].
So you might have a look at the sources to see how they have done it.

There is also the GitHub - majorsilence/MPlayerControl: MPlayer c# .net library[^] for MPlayer - The Movie Player[^].
