A few years ago i wrote an application in VBA (Excel) which syncs subtitles. The code contains an embedded Windows Media Player control in a userform. In general this program works fine, but lately the subtitling starts at the beginning again as soon as the movie is interupted (for example by clicking the pause button) in order to sync the subtitles on a specific moment somewhere in the middle of a movie. This happens particulary with mkv files and srt subtitles. Only last week i have synced the complete series of "Breaking Bad" (mkv & srt) with this programm without a single problem. Yesterday it didn't work anymore. Like i said the subtitling starts all over again after clicking the pause button, while the movie continues. Does this sound familiar to someone? Maybe it's important to know that it only happens within my application, not while playing the movie directly in WMP.
On my computer i have installed the newest version of WMP, Windows 8.1 (64 bits) and Office 2010 (32 bits).
The question is why WMP behaves different (with regard to the above described problem) if it is used as an embedded control in an application.
I'am hoping for an easy answer.
