Currently there is a way over streaming the file.
First of all, we need a place where it should be always possible
string streamPath = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.ApplicationData) + @"";
Next Step an Instance of the MediaPlayer
WindowsMediaPlayer wmp = new WindowsMediaPlayer();
Then we need to stream the Assembly Resource
Stream stream = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetManifestResourceStream("Smartis.Resources.Natur.wmv");
using (Stream output = new FileStream (streamPath + "mediafile.avi", FileMode.Create))
{
byte buffer = new byte[32*1024];
int read;
while ( (read= stream.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length)) > 0)
{
output.Write(buffer, 0, read);
}
}
Finally we should be able to load the file.
wmp.URL = streamPath + "mediafile.avi";
wmp.controls.play();
After playing don't forget to clear the folder:
File.Delete(streamPath + "mediafile.avi");

This won't work because the video is not located in an URL, it's in the resources of the program
