I guess the reason why Michael misunderstood your question is that i
completely missed the point of the original question. Thanks to all people
explaining to me what OCX files are. I never was involved in a VB project,
so i never heard of OCX. I was convinced Wei was asking about  .ax files,
being the normal extension for Windows Dshow filters. Sorry, my bad !

About Ogg streaming via Dshow filters on WMP :

I heard some rumours Tobias Waldvogel has plans here, but i am not fully
informed about the goal. If you drop me a mail to christianhjw at users dot
sourceforge dot net in a few weeks i will maybe be able to tell you more
about it, because i am in close contact with the people that do know more on
this subject.

Regards

Christian
