ActiveX and NT Service

Hi, I had no problem using the VLCplugin activeX component with Delphi.

Now I am trying to use the component to write a NT service, but as soon as I create the activeX on service startup, the service dies with an error (wrong memory access).

Do you have any suggestion or a working example?

NT services may have access to network or the display, but not both. It's Microsoft's attempt at security...

I suspect the ActiveX will attempt to use both.
