[python-win32] WMPlayer.OCX COM object: player window is not opened

[lambda]

I'm trying to instantiate and use a Windows Media Player COM object. I can do
that and all seems fine, but the player window is not opened.

Here's my code:

I get the sound from this video, but no video window is shown. And in the
process list I don't find a wmplayer.exe process, just a wmpnetwk.exe
process (whereby I'm not sure if this process is related to my COM object).

I played around a bit and found that

actually opens a WMPlayer window; but that player can't be controlled by COM
commands;  and similar are ineffective.

Maybe I'm just overlooking a silly detail, but I'm stuck on this - any help
is appreciated!
