Interacting with Media Player

[sinsi]

Revisiting old code, guess who discovered VK_MEDIA_NEXT_TRACK? Much better way of controlling media player and no need for admin privileges.
Sorry about the old thread but I seem to have an affinity for it...

Also, I use ebx to call an API, my linking happens via _imp__API, just replace "call ebx" with "call API".
What can I say, it's a hack, but 2 of my long-suffering guinea pigs have been using it for a few years now.
