what options do I have for video playback in my .net c# windows application.

currently I am playing with “Microsoft.DirectX.AudioVideoPlayback” but this has, if I am not mistaken, a pre-requirement that DirectX be loaded on the computer.
are there any other options?

UPDATE:

I am using winforms .net 2.

    Not sure what display technology you are using (WPF or WinForms), but take a look at the WPF MediaElement. It abstracts everything for you and plays really well.

    If you are using WinForms, you can still embed the WPF MediaElement inside the WinForms if it makes sense for you.
