WMP control interface

I want to use C# to program an interface to help controlling Windows Media
Player.
Besides Odyssey Software CFCOM , any other SDK can't used?

Roll your own COM wrapper. WMP is pretty simple, I bet you can have it done
in a week if you already know C++ and ATL/COM.

Does it also work in PocketPC?

ATL/COM can *not* be done with C#. You'll have to write it with unmanaged
C++ using eVC. I'd start with Rector and Sells' ATL Internals from Addison
Wesley IIRC.

Is there any method if I have to use C#?

No. Since the CF doesn't support COM interop, you have to use something
like CFCOM, which was written in C++, to wrap the COM calls, or write it
yourself.
